OPENING OF BAKU-CEYHAN OIL PIPELINE DISTURBS REGION’S ECONOMIC
BALANCE: ANDRANIK MARGARYAN

YEREVAN, May 25. /ARKA/. The opening of the Baku-Ceyhan oil pipeline
disturbs the economic balance in the region, RA Premier Andranik
Margaryan told reporters. According to him, the Baku-Ceyhan project
was a project where Armenia was to be involved to a certain extent.
However, the project results from “political talks.” Margaryan
stressed that Armenia will try to find alternative ways of maintaining
the region’s economic balance. According to him, one of them may be
the construction of an Iran-Armenia gas pipeline, which may be laid as
far as Georgia and farther to Europe. P.T. -0–
