Iranian provincial governor visits Armenia to discuss ties

[Translated from Persian]

The governor-general of Iran’s East Azarbayjan Province is visiting
Armenia at the head of a trade and economic delegation to discuss the
development of mutual ties between the two countries.

The trade and commercial programmes of the visit will officially start
from 21 December. Beygi and his delegation are expected to visit
plants, sheep farms and industrial greenhouses.

On the second day of its visit to Armenia, the delegation will meet
the Armenian deputy prime minister, the minister of territorial
administration and the governor of Armenia’s Armavir Province.

The trade turnover between Iran and Armenia reached 300m dollars last
year and is expected to increase by 40 per cent next year.
