Armenia to attract foreigners on its telecommunications market

RBC, 19.08.2004, Yerevan 19:25:07.The Armenian government will
hold an international tender to attract new mobile operator after
ArmenTel’s monopoly had been ruled illegal, Armenian Justice Minister
David Arutunian told journalists today. According to him, the
government decision to cancel the existing monopoly on the internal
telecommunications market will likely become effective starting
September 28, 2004. According to Armenian news agency Arminfo,
Armenian officials believe that an international tender was the most
prudent decision.
