"An issue of NATO admission is not on the agenda of the republic's
foreign policy," Armenian Defence Minister Serzh Sarkisyan has said at
a meeting with Iranian ambassador to Armenia Ali Reza Haqiqian.
The Armenian defence minister's press secretary, Col Seyran
Shakhsuvaryan, has told Mediamax news agency that "Serzh Sarkisyan
said this commenting on Armenia's intention to sign the Individual
Partnership Action Plan (IPAP) with NATO".
During the meeting, the sides discussed the issues related to the
Armenian defence minister's forthcoming visit to Tehran, the problems
of regional security and the settlement of the Nagornyy Karabakh
conflict.
The Iranian ambassador suggested to open the Persian language courses
in the Vazgen Sarkisyan Military Institute. Serzh Sarkisyan welcomed
this proposal saying that the military institute could be the second
centre for deepening study of the Persian language in Armenia after
Yerevan State University.
