/PanARMENIAN.Net/ VympelCom will refrain from re-branding ArmenTel
unless it settles the problems with establishing BeeLine brand in
Armenia. The ArmenTel brand is strong and well-known, VympelCom deputy
executive director Dmitry Pleskonos said. The company administration
is working for introduction of BeeLine brand, according to him.

"Removal of brand is not conditioned by obligations and capabilities
VympelCom has in Russia," he said.

Dmitry Pleskonos emphasized that improvement of service quality is
a priority for his company, RBC reports.

However, in his earlier statements Mr Pleskonos said VympelCom is
interested in promoting BeeLine brand.

When commenting on the conflict with Armenia-based Bi Line computer
equipment and service company, Mr Pleskonos said negotiations on a
joint brand are held.
