Armenia expects Russian companies to bid for strategic north-south highway leading to Iran.

In this forum, we did not discuss the participation of Russian companies in the construction of the North-South project, but we will have a relatively extensive bidding process in which various international companies will participate. I think that our Russian partners will participate in this tender.
