Armenian Foreign Minister hails President Ahmadinejad's recent trip
saying the visit has enhanced sustainable peace in the region. Vartan
Oskanian said in a press conference in Yerevan on Thursday that
"during President Ahmadinejad's visit to Yerevan, initiatives to
boost bilateral ties and promote trade between the two countries were
discussed," according to IRNA. The Armenian Foreign Minister dismissed
reports by some media that not signing a free trade agreement between
the two countries was a result of the sanctions imposed against Iran
by the UN Security Council.
"The documents were not ready during President Ahmadinejad's visit.
Some of its provisions relating to Armenia's international undertakings
needed additional review," the minister said. "The plans that Armenia
will carry out with Iran's support have regional importance," Oskanian
said. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad arrived in Yerevan Monday to meet
his Armenian counterpart Robert Koucharian.
During the visit, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Armenia issued a
joint statement on strengthening sustainable peace and stability in
the region.
