    PRESIDENT DEPARTS TABRIZ FOR ARMENIA TO INAUGURATE GAS PIPELINE

    Islamic Republic News Agency, Iran
    March 19 2007

    President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, on a stopover in Tabriz, capital of
    Azarbaijan province, left this northeastern city Monday morning for
    Yerevan, capital of the Republic of Armenia, where he is to attend the
    inaugural ceremony of the newly completed Iran-Armenia gas pipeline.

    The Iranian president, before his departure, had a short talk with
    the governor general of Tabriz at the city's airport.

    Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki, Minister of Energy Parviz Fattah
    and Oil Minister Kazem Vaziri-Hamaneh are accompanying the president
    in this trip.

    The pipeline is to be inaugurated in Armenia today with the presidents
    of the two countries as the main guests.

    Some 10 million cubic meters of Iranian gas will be delivered per
    day through the 110-km gas pipeline to Armenia when the pipeline
    starts operations.

    The pipeline, which was due to be completed in 930 days, was finished
    in 650 days due to its importance.
