The lifting of Western sanctions against Iran anticipated as a result of a landmark framework agreement to restrict Tehran's nuclear activities would boost Armenian-Iranian commercial ties and regional security, official Yerevan said on Friday.
Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharian reaffirmed the Armenian government's highly positive reaction to the agreement reached by Iran and world powers in Lausanne on Thursday.
"The sanctions have also inhibited our relations with Iran," Kocharian told RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun.am). "So the reaching of the agreement on the [Iranian] nuclear program by the interested parties is very important."
"It will not only help to expand Iranian-Armenian trade but will also play an important role in boosting stability in the region," he said.
