/PanARMENIAN.Net/ An agreement to build a railway connecting
Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Iran has been already signed, a Kazakh
Embassy official said.
"The construction will be over in 2011. If Iran and Armenia agree
to build a link, direct communication will be establishment between
Kazakhstan and Armenia. Given Russia’s interest in the project,
I think it will be implemented," said Kartay Khairov, advisor on
economy at the Kazakh Embassy in Yerevan.
"As far as I know, the Armenian government has assigned $1 million
for the purpose," he said.
