Jun 6, 2005, 12:41 GMT

6 June: “The major problem in relations between Iran and Armenia is
the unsettled issue of borders,” the Iranian ambassador to Armenia,
Ali Reza Haqiqian, has said.

An Iranian-Armenian commission on border issues has been set up,
which given the intensification of its activities, could play an
important role in the resolution of this problem, he said.

Speaking on trade and economic relations, the ambassador said that
they are at the highest level and look rosy. The annual commodity
turnover between Iran and Armenia is growing by 30 per cent. Last
year the commodity turnover totalled 180m dollars.

Haqiqian described the construction of the export gas pipeline from
Iran to Armenia as the most important joint project.
