Cooperation between the regions of Russia and Armenia has an efficient
influence on development of bilateral relations, Russian Transport
Minister Maksim Sokolov said in Yerevan.
Speaking at the opening of Armenia-Russia interregional forum, Sokolov
noted relations between the regions may affect considerably bilateral
ties in general.
For this reason, a separate working group was set up to deal with
interregional economic cooperation. The group held its first meeting
in Gyumri this March. Regular meetings of the representatives from the
countries’ regions are held in Russian cities.
The first Armenia-Russia interregional cooperation forum was held in
Yerevan in April 2011.
