MOSCOW, June 22 (RIA Novosti) - Russian President Vladimir Putin and
his Armenian counterpart, Robert Kocharyan, said they were satisfied
with the Year of Russia celebrations in Armenia as they met to
discuss bilateral issues and focus on energy and investment projects.
Vladimir Putin said that Armenia's participation in the Eurasian
Economic Community (Eurasec) as an observer would be useful.
"It is a positive signal that you regularly participate in the summit
meetings of the Eurasec heads of state," Putin said. "I would like to
say how satisfied I am that both countries have had such close
contacts lately."
"Russian governors are visiting Armenia and the Russia Year
celebration in Armenia covers a whole range of bilateral relations,"
Kocharyan said.
According to the Russian president, the Bolshoi Theatre tour in
Armenia was a great success. He expressed the hope that all the
events planned for the Year of Russia in Armenia would be very
impressive.
Kocharyan said that Russia was holding many events in Armenia and
economic projects were a priority.
The Armenian president further said that today's meeting was useful
for discussing bilateral relations, especially as a continuation of
their conversation in Yerevan.
"I would like to discuss energy issues and specific investment
projects," Kocharyan said.
According to him, "the instructions given in the past have been acted
upon and relations are developing dynamically." At the same time, the
Armenian leader said some issues in bilateral relations needed to be
corrected.
