    YEREVAN, MARCH 26, NOYAN TAPAN. The two biggest operators in Armenia's
    communication sector - K-Telecom and ArmenTel companies discuss
    the problem of reviewing the conditions of connecting each other's
    channels and services, Director General of K-Telecom Ralph Yirikian
    stated at the March 25 press conference.

    According to the Head of PR Service of ArmenTel company Anush
    Beghloyan, active negotiations are being conducted on reviewing these
    conditions. Like R. Yirikian, she did not mention when the negotiations
    will end.

    R. Yirikian did not share the opinion of a reporter that the fact that
    K-Telecom and ArmenTel are participating in one event for the first
    time means that the companies have reached an internal agreement
    to unite for struggling against the 3rd operator. "We believe in
    healthy competition. We have already seen how a market can have
    healthy competition. When the third operator enters the market,
    we will see healthy competition again," he said.

    He explained that there is healthy competition among big and small
    operators in the Russian market, expressing an opinion that the same
    will take place in Armenia.

    A. Beghloyan also exprssed her support for healthy competition,
    noting that partners rather than rivals should operate in a market.

    To recap, satrting from the autumn of 2009 Orange Armenia company
    (France Telecom group) plans to provide services in Armenia.

    It should be mentioned that it was for the first time on March 25 that
    the representatives of K-Telecom and ArmenTel took part in one event -
    the presentation of itel.am website.
