Presenter Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov during the meeting
with his Armenian counterpart Andranik Markaryan announced that Russia
has the desire and opportunities to expand military-technical
cooperation with Armenia and is going to do this by involving Russian
enterprises in the modernization of the military equipment and weapons
that the Armenian army possesses. Fradkov and Markaryan also talked
about trade and economic relations. They were not satisfied with the
annual 200m-dollar commodity turnover.
Correspondent Tereza Kasyan from Moscow by phone Our relations are
developing and dialogue is continually being filled with new
substance, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov announced during the
Armenian-Russian intergovernmental talks. Before this meeting Andranik
Markaryan and Mikhail Fradkov had discussed the current level of
Armenian-Russian economic relations which, according to both prime
ministers, are not satisfying. Trade turnover between Armenia and
Russia has grown by 30 per cent in comparison with last year, which is
more than 10,000 dollars. This is not the limit by far, the sides
announced, and agreed to cooperate in all possible spheres, energy,
high technologies, military-technical. Armenia and Russia have an
economic cooperation potential which is not being used entirely. We
intend to use all opportunities to develop our countries, the Armenian
prime minister said.
Tomorrow Andranik Markaryan will meet Speaker of the Federation
Council Sergey Mironov.
