By Messenger Staff Friday, November 20 At the end of 2009 Armenia
and Iran will start constructing the oil pipeline from the Iranian
city of Tavriz to Armenia’s Eraskh. As Minister of Energy of Armenia
Armen Movsisian stated Russia will have 10% of this project. Through
this pipeline Armenia will receive benzine and fuel.

Initially the project envisaged building an oil refinery in the
Armenian city of Megri, but Russia considered this impractical and
later Gazprom decided to participate in this project instead. Analysts
think that the average annual consumption of oil products by Armenia
will not be more than 250,000 tonnes annually.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
