    RA PRIME MINISTER AND NEWLY APPOINTED AMBASSADOR OF IRAN TO ARMENIA
    EMPHASIZE IMPORTANCE OF TREATY ON CONSTRUCTION OF IRAN-ARMENIA GAS
    PIPELINE CONCLUDED IN MAY

    YEREVAN, August 2 (Noyan Tapan). Armenia attaches great importance to
    bilateral relations with Iran, as well as the widening of multilateral
    relations. Contacts on high level and mutual visits contribute to it
    essentially. RA Prime Minister Andranik Margarian said about it on
    July 30, receiving newly appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and
    Plenipotentiary of Iran to Armenia Ali Reza Haqiqian. Congratulating
    the Ambassador with the beginning of his diplomatic mission, Andranik
    Margarian, in particular, expressed hope that the tradition of the
    successful Armenian-Iranian relations will also continue in the period
    of his tenure in Armenia. The sides stressed the importance of the
    visit of President Mohammed Khatami to Armenia scheduled for September
    8-9, 2004. According to the RA government's press service, Andranik
    Margarian and Ali Reza Haqiqian stressed that multilateral cooperation
    between Iran and Armenia meets the interests of the two peoples, as
    well as it is advantageous for the region on the whole. The Ambassador
    of Iran emphasized that both the peace in the region and
    intra-political stability and the economic development of neighboring
    Armenia is of great importance to his country. The interlocutors
    stressed the great importance of, in particular, the signing of the
    treaty on the construction of the Iran-Armenia gas pipeline, the joint
    construction of the Kajaran tunnel and an HPP on the Arax river. They
    highly estimated the work of the 4th joint sitting of the
    Inter-Governmental Economic Commission held in Tehran on December
    9-11, 2002, and the importance of the documents signed at the sitting.
    Andranik Margarian wished the new Ambassador every success in his
    mission in Armenia and promised to contribute to his work.
