YEREVAN, Armenia, Oct. 25 (UPI) -- Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad
has said he thinks the Iran-Armenia gas pipeline might be extended
to Europe.
"The Europe option is a very good idea and we welcome it," he said.
"We need to carry out a feasibility study, and if the results are
positive, I see no problem."
The comments, which were made Wednesday, were reported by Public
Television of Armenia.
Ahmadinejad also said talks between Armenia and Iran on the
construction of an oil refinery in Armenia were ongoing.
"I assess the negotiations very positively," he said. "Let us wait
for their result, and afterwards an agreement could be signed. This
is a successful field for trilateral Armenia-Iran-Russia cooperation."
