Alexey Gordeyev said that investments are being made in different enterprises and organizations of Armenia and they comprise around 40% of Armenia’s economy. “In other words, our business has a serious presence in Armenia, but we would like to change the quality of investments and create a joint production, and we will sell its products not only in the Armenian and Russian markets, but also will export it to other markets. For this purpose a very interesting and substantive discussion was held. For example, we discussed to build an effectively operating join technopark in Armenia in the future”, he noted.
