"I don’t think there is need to comment on the sale of the VivaCell
Company," said the minister of transport and communication Andranik
Manukyan on August 30. The minister said he got no documents on the
sale, ARKA reported.

The news about the sale of the second mobile operator VivaCell appeared
in the media a few days ago. The Russian MTS is said likely to buy
VivaCell. However, MTS and VivaCell do not confirm or deny the sale.
