    The presidents of Armenia and Georgia, Robert Kocharyan and Mikheil
    Saakashvili, focused on issues of improving Georgian-Russian relations
    during their talks in Yerevan today, Georgian President Mikheil
    Saakashvili told a briefing in Yerevan today, Mediamax news agency
    reports.

    He said that he was decisive to normalize his country's relations with
    Russia, which "had considerably worsened under the previous Georgian
    president", according to Saakashvili.

    Saakashvili said that many countries which maintain good relations
    with Russia could contribute to the process of normalizing
    Georgian-Russian relations. In particular, Saakashvili said that he
    discussed this issue with French President Jacques Chirac several days
    ago.

    "However, we believe that Armenia, which maintains special relations
    with Russia, could play a special role in normalizing Georgian-Russian
    ties," Saakashvili said.
