Armenian-Russian joint company ArmrosGazprom plans to relaunch the
5th block of the Razdan electric power station, which runs on Russian
natural gas which enters Armenia via Georgia. Director General of
the company Karen Karapetian has stated that the 300 megawatt energy
block has been completely reconstructed and modernised, enabling
Armenia to produce cheap electrical energy and export it.

At present ArmrosGazprom does not export any electricity but some time
ago it exported it to Georgia. The Razdan block is the most powerful
in Armenia and its reconstruction cost USD 393.5 million.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
