YEREVAN, August 13. /ARКА/. Flights to Europe are planned from Shirak Airport in Gyumri, Armenian Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure David Khudatyan said during a working visit to Shirak Province.

“We already have an agreement with one airline and, within the framework of the state subsidy program, flights to a new destination – Europe – will probably be launched in the near future, which will provide the city and the province with additional traffic and economic progress,” Armenpress quotes Khudatyan as saying.
