YEREVAN, MAY 30, ARMENPRESS. The restoration of railway infrastructures in Armenia as part of the unblocking of regional connections could take approximately two or three years according to preliminary calculations, Deputy Prime Minister of Armenia Mher Grigoryan has said.

Grigoryan told reporters that the railway can be a very obvious effective infrastructure solution for the region.

“We want solutions that would strengthen and enhance Armenia’s role in the region as a logistic hub. At this moment the railway option seems to be the most likely one. If we look at the railway infrastructures in the region, it is clear that by restoring individual sections we would get a serious logistic solution on a regional level. By very preliminary calculations the restoration could take approximately two to three years,” Grigoryan said.

Grigoryan added that he plans to participate in the scheduled meeting on unblocking with his Russian and Azerbaijani counterparts this week.
