Moscow. (Interfax) – Russia and Armenia are nearing completion on a
draft agreement on cooperation in the gas field, Russian Prime
Minister Mikhail Fradkov told the press on Tuesday following a
meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Andranik Margarian.
The two sides discussed cooperation in the construction of new
pipelines, he said.
“The outlook in this field is not bad,” Fradkov said. In particular,
Russian gas can be supplied to third countries through pipelines
crossing Armenia, he said.
