Armenia is ready to provide movement on Armenian-Turkish railroad
The Armenian Railway Service is ready to launch train movement on the Gyumri-Kars branch line of the Armenian-Turkish railroad any time. This was reported to journalists on Friday by Armenian Minister of Transport and Communications Andranik Manukian.
He alleged there was reliable information that the Turkish party had built a new railway station on the border with Armenia and provided railway junction infrastructure. "It is up to the Turkish authorities to make a political decision and the railroad will start working", noted Manukian.
