MOSCOW, September 25 (ITAR-TASS) – Russian-Armenian relations are
on rise, Russian Prime Minister Viktor Zubkov told Armenian Prime
Minister Serzh Sarkisyan at their meeting in Moscow on Tuesday.
Sarkisyan said the bilateral relations are "developing normally".
An increase in trade was above 70 percent in the first half-year,
which is a "good confirmation of these words".
Sarkisyan said a plan of long-term economic cooperation had been
approved at a recent meeting of the intergovernmental commission.
"If it is approved by the Russian prime minister, a billion-sized
trade turnover can be reached in a foreseeable future," he said.
