Armenia’s energy minister denied Friday that the impoverished
Caucasus Mountain nation had struck a deal with Russia’s state-run
gas monopoly to hand it control of part of a new Armenian-Iranian gas
pipeline.
OAO Gazprom a day earlier announced that it had struck a 25-year-deal
giving Gazprom’s Armenian joint venture ownership rights to the
Armenian segment of a planned pipeline bringing Iranian gas to the
country and an electricity power generating unit.
