Russia

At a meeting between the Russian Interior Ministry and the Armenian police
department, Deputy Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliev said that Armenia
played a special role in domestic law enforcement in Russia.
"In handling issues of domestic law enforcement, it is important today for
Russia to have the backing and active involvement of fraternal states, among
which Armenia has a special role," Mr. Nurgaliev said.
He said that the issues were, above all, the fight against terrorism, drug
trafficking and illegal immigration, the human trade, racketeering and
economic crime.
Mr. Nurgaliev also proposed broadening the list of additional steps that
Russian and Armenian law enforcement agencies should take.
Specifically, additional protection for bilateral investment projects,
increased interaction in the planning and implementation of antiterrorism
actions and ensuring the security of important facilities, Mr. Nurgaliev
said.
He also proposed considering pressing problems and formulating solutions at
the bilateral meeting of the heads of the ministerial divisions this fall.
"It would be expedient to consider matters of immigration, the creation of
practical mechanisms to monitor the movement of capital and the development
of immediate contacts between the information and analytical divisions of
the two agencies," Mr. Nurgaliev said.
Armenian police chief Aik Arutyunyan said that over five months in 2004, the
Russian law enforcement agencies had detained and extradited 23 criminals to
Armenia.
In 2003, the Russian law enforcement agencies detained and extradited 48
people wanted by Armenian law enforcement agencies, Mr. Arutyunyan said.
In 2003, the Armenian police established the guilt of and detained 62
individuals wanted by Russian law enforcement agencies. Over five months of
this year, the Armenian police found and detained 22 people wanted by the
Russian Interior Ministry, the Armenian police chief said.
