Armenian project and the financing of the Moscow side the Moscow
park was constructed opposite the Drama Theater. By this agreement
a Yerevanian park will be constructed in Moscow.
“The cooperation of these years yielded good results.
The ratification of this agreement marks the beginning of the new
phase. This year a number of events will be organized, including
housing issues. In autumn days of Yerevan will be organized in
Moscow. They too will have a good effect on our relations”, Sergey
Boydakov said.
