ArmInfo. Armenia is exploring in detail the possibilities of launching a regular ferry  service. Armenian Minister of Economy Vahan Kerobyan stated this in  an interview to Public Television.

In his words, this is nothing more than the connection of the railway  systems of Armenia and Russia. "In the event of a successful outcome  of the trilateral negotiations, it will be possible to take a  different path.  However, in order not to waste time, we will do our  best to connect the railways of Armenia and Russia, " Kerobyan said,  noting that this will sharply increase the competitiveness of the  Armenian economy.

Moreover, according to the minister, the launch of a regular ferry  service will free one from dependence on the only land road through  the Upper Lars checkpoint, which connects Armenia and Russia
