    YEREVAN

    The leader of the Armenian Liberal Progressive Party, Oganes
    Oganesyan, today criticized [Armenian President] Robert Kocharyan's
    decision not to take part in the NATO summit in Istanbul.

    Speaking at the National Press Club today, Oganesyan said that the
    president's refusal to take part in the NATO summit could negatively
    affect Armenia's integration into the Euro-Atlantic structures.

    Armenian President Robert Kocharyan refused to take part in the NATO
    summit in Istanbul because of the absence of diplomatic relations
    between Armenia and Turkey. The Armenian delegation in Istanbul was
    headed by Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan.

    Oganes Oganesyan said that Armenia should strive to join
    NATO. According to him, already in five years Georgia, Azerbaijan and
    Uzbekistan can become full members of the North Atlantic Alliance.
