ArmInfo.Armenia's Minister of Territorial Administration Gnel Sanosyan hosted a Ukrainian-Armenian business delegation. Participating in the meeting were Armenian Ambassador to Ukraine Vladimir Karapetyan, Head of Armenia's Migration Service Armen Ghazaryan and Enterprise Armenia CEO Levon Ohanesyan.
The minister stressed that various branches of Armenia's economy afford ample investment opportunities.
"Recent years have seen large-scale construction in Armenia - roads, schools and water-supply lines have been constructed. We would like to do more, but the local companies' potential is insufficient. So I can state straightforwardly that we need you. We have much work to do in our country and no one is going to interfere with your work here," the minister said.
The businessmen inquired about a number of details and showed their interest in road construction, waste recycling, solar energy and opportunities for their companies submitting tenders in Armenia.
In his turn, Mr Ghazaryan provided the information of interest to the businessmen.
This January-September, Armenian-Ukrainian trade reached $61.9mln - a 44.5% decline as compared with last Jan-Sept. Armenia's exports to Ukraine totaled $8.9mln (a 48.2% decline), and imports from Ukraine, $53mln (a 43.8% decline).
