Published:
15 July 2004 y., Thursday
Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov, during talks in Moscow on 13 July with his visiting Armenian counterpart, Andranik Markarian, said that even though trade turnover between the two countries has increased over the past year by 30 percent to top $200 million, the limits to economic cooperation have not yet been reached, Russian agencies reported.
Fradkov also assessed as "not bad" the prospects for expanding bilateral military-technical cooperation, noting that the first session of a joint commission to promote such cooperation will take place in September or October. Such cooperation will center on modernizing equipment Russia previously supplied to Armenia, Fradkov said. LF
