Brussels, 26 July: NATO Secretary-General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer is to
visit Armenia in early November this year, it was learned from NATO
headquarters.
Scheffer's visit could be linked to implementing the decisions taken
during NATO's Istanbul summit. As is known, in Istanbul NATO decided
to step up work in the South Caucasus and Central Asia.
We note that the Armenian side has repeatedly said that future NATO
membership is not on official Yerevan's agenda. Armenia is also
preparing to announce individual partnership with NATO (Individual
partnership plan) and has expressed its readiness to have exercises
from NATO's "Cooperative Associate 2005" on its territory.
