YEREVAN, OCTOBER 24, NOYAN TAPAN. During the 5th Armenia - Artsakh
- Slovakia business forum held in Yerevan on October 19-20, the
Slovakian side proposed that the management of Viasphere Technopark
should organize work on creation of a technopark in Slovakia, Ashot
Grigorian, businessman, head of the Armenian community of Slovakia,
announced at the October 24 press conference.
In his words, the Slovakian government is prepared to create
all conditions for establishing a teachnopark with Armenian
investments. Besides, the Slovakian side expressed an intention to use
the knowhow of Armenian applied science, with intensive negotiations
being conducted with this aim.
According to A. Grigorian, during the business forum, Kon-Rad company
(Slovakia) engaged in food export and import was conducting preliminary
negotiations on import of Armenian dried fruit, concentrated apricot
and pomegranate juices, and other foodstuffs into Slovakia, while
Energoconsult company was negotiating the issues of continuing the
programs on construction of small hydropower plants in Armenia and
starting such programs in Artsakh.
It was pointed out that there are no difficulties with Armenia-Slovakia
cargo transportation thanks to the proper operation of Burgas-Poti and
Varna-Poti ferries. In the opinion of A. Grigorian, even if Turkey
lifts the blockade of Armenia, the motor transport transit route
through this country will not be used to communicate with Central
and North Europe because the indicated route through Turkey is longer.
