Yerevan, 22 August: Friendly relations between the Armenian and
Georgian presidents will definitely tell on mutual relations between
ordinary residents of both countries. This is how Armenian President
Robert Kocharyan commented for journalists on the results of his
unofficial meeting with Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili at his
summer residence on Lake Sevan today.
[Passage omitted: reported details]
Commenting on a recent article carried by the Russian newspaper
Nezavisimaya Gazeta, which said that the current Armenian-Russian
[presumably Armenian-Georgian] unofficial talks allegedly have an
anti-Russian undertone, Robert Kocharyan described it as "a fruit of a
morbid and limited imagination of the author of that article".
Everything possible should be done for the interests of the two
countries not to collide in the South Caucasus, in Armenia and
Georgia. On the contrary, if there are some points for collision, they
should be softened, and the current relations may be very useful in
these terms.
Only people with a morbid imagination can look for an undertone here,
like the said article did it, the Armenian president believes.
