TEHRAN – The project of Iran’s gas conveyance pipeline to Armenia will
come on stream early 2007, Reza Kasaiizadeh, the managing director
of the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC) said here on Wednesday.

"First, Iran will export 3 million cu. m. of gas per day to
Armenia. The figure will gradually reach 10 million cu. m. of gas per
day, according to the schedule," he told Iranian Students News Agency

Shifting to Iran-Turkey gas pipeline, he said that Iran’s gas export
to Turkey was resumed on October 2, after parts of the pipeline which
were damaged by last Thursday’s explosion were repaired.

"The explosion was the first of a kind occurred at Iran’s border. NIGC
is pursuing plans to increase security in border regions in order to
prevent such events in future," he added.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
