"Armenia wants to be involved in the project of restoration of
Sochi-Tbilisi Railroad communication, if Russia and Georgia take
a final decision on state level on restoration of that part of the
railroad," Khrimian stated.
Genady Fadeyev, head of Russian Railroads, stated in his turn that
the expenditure of restoration of the Abkhazian part of the railroad
will cost about $100 million.

positive position in the issue of restoring the Abkhazian part of the
railroad. At the same time, Noghayideli said that one shouldn't hurry
unless there are unsolved issues, particularly the issue of securing
the safety of Gali region's residents.
