The Italian company Elitaliana is interested in providing helicopter services in Armenia, CEO Alessandro Giulivi said at a meeting with the chief of Armenia's General Department of Civil Aviation Sergey Avetisyan.

At a meeting in Yerevan, the Italian delegation introduced Elitaliana's activity, as well as the services that the company provides.
