The issue of a strike on the railway arose due to the conflict between the leadership of the South Caucasus Railway and employees and Armenian ministry supports a speedy solution to the problem, the Minister of Territorial Administration and Development of Armenia Suren Papikyan said Wednesday at the Armenian parliament.

According to him, the parties should come to a compromise. 

“Active discussions are being held. The issue is still unresolved. Tomorrow I plan to meet with the striking railway workers. Our partners in the South Caucasus Railway expressed their readiness to increase the salaries of their employees by 10%,” the minister said.
