YEREVAN, MARCH 24, ARMENPRESS. The Armenian government will subsidize the Poti-Port Kavkaz regular ferry connection for imports or exports.

The decision was made at the March 24 Cabinet meeting.

“Armenia faces various problems while importing or exporting, the Upper Lars road gets closed and leads to vehicle congestion from different sides. In this new situation, when food security is a top priority for every country, there is a need for fundamental solutions. We suggest subsidizing the Poti-Kavkaz regular ferry connection, which is carried out twice a week, in order to be able in a certain period of time to shift a significant part of our logistic shipments to railway mode,” Minister of Economy Vahan Kerobyan said.

“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
