Armenian companies are interested in building hotels in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast (Region) of the Russian Federation.  

Nizhny Novgorod Governor Valery Shantsev told the above-said to Armenian News-NEWS.am.

“We consider that these projects are important because we lack hotels. There are projects in the construction industry, too.

“[And] since our partner is Vayots Dzor Region [of Armenia], there is a prospect for tourism development,” the regional governor stated. 

In turn, Aghasi Alekyan, head of the Nizhny Novgorod-Armenian community, noted that there is collaboration with Vayots Dzor Region also in the humanitarian domain.
