/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian government has decided to amend the
agreement on transfer of Armenian Railways to Russian Railways (RZD).
Minister of Transport and Communications Gurgen Sargsyan said that
amendments will include a provision regulating determination of
railway tariffs.
For his part, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan said that a
working group will be formed to control the situation.

rise after the concessioner was announced and will never allow it
happen again."
