Iran’s Caretaker Oil Minister Gholam-Hossein Nozari says the country’s
gas exports to Armenia will begin in the next two or three months.

Iran has completed the part of the pipeline which is in Iran, Nozari
told reporters on the sidelines of a seminar in Tehran on Wednesday.

"Armenian officials say the construction of the Armenia part of the
pipeline will be completed in the next two or three months," he added.

Nozari said Tehran has further reached an agreement with Yerevan to
import electricity from Armenia during the summer.

In response to a question about the Iran-Pakistan-India (IPI) gas
pipeline, Nozari said it would take some time before the deal is
signed, expressing hope that India and Pakistan would resolve the
differences over transit fees.
