Armenia and Iran to Build Second Bridge at Border

Armenia and Iran have reached an agreement to construct a second bridge at their border. This was announced by Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan during a press conference with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.

Pashinyan stated that Armenia and Iran have set a strategic milestone to increase bilateral trade volume to reach $1 billion, and eventually $3 billion. “We can confirm that we are actually approaching the $1 billion milestone and are consistently working towards achieving the next target. In this regard, the free trade agreement that has come into effect between the EAEU member states and Iran offers new opportunities for the businesses of both countries,” emphasized Pashinyan.
