    Armenian president meets Tajik leader en route to China

    Tajik Radio first programme, Dushanbe
    26 Sep 04

    Tajik President Emomali Rahmonov received his Armenian counterpart,
    Robert Kocharyan, who made a stopover in Dushanbe en route to China
    today. Our correspondent Subhiddin Shamsiddin reports:

    [Shamsiddin] A wide range of issues relating to economic, trade,
    scientific and cultural cooperation between the two states were
    discussed at the meeting.

    Emomali Rahmonov said a firm legal basis of cooperation had been laid
    in the past few years for boosting bilateral ties between the two
    states. The first meeting of the intergovernmental commission on
    economic cooperation and a meeting of businessmen, which were held
    after my visit to Yerevan, have been a significant step towards the
    development of friendly relations between Tajikistan and Armenia
    [Rahmonov said].

    The president's spokesman, Abdufattoh Sharipov, said the following:

    [Sharipov] The two presidents called for the practical implementation
    of the agreements signed, in the first instance the agreement on
    friendship and cooperation between Tajikistan and Armenia. They
    stressed the need for raising trade and economic cooperation to a
    qualitatively new level to meet the demand and desire of the two
    nations; boosting import and export, encouraging cooperation between
    scientific and cultural circles and stepping up friendly relations
    between the two states as a whole.

    [Shamsiddin] Emomali Rahmonov and Robert Kocharyan also exchanged
    views on a wide range of regional and international issues, including
    threats to the modern world and prospects for cooperation within the
    CIS.

    The meeting was held in an atmosphere of mutual understanding.
