MOSCOW, April 5 (Itar-Tass) -- Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan
Oskanyan arrived in Moscow on a three-day visit on Wednesday.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mikhail Kamynin said, "Relations
with Armenia have lately acquired the nature of strategic and allied
partnership and are characterised by positive dynamics."
At the talks in Moscow the sides will discuss "the implementation
of top-level agreements on the enhancement of Russian-Armenian
cooperation, including in the transport, and fuel and energy sectors,
as well as direct economic ties between Russian regions and Armenia,"
Kamynin said.
The Year of Armenia in Russia will be one of the priority topics at
the talks, he added.
Special attention will be given to "the coordination of efforts to
step up political interaction against terrorism."
"The sides will exchange views on the coordination of efforts in
international organisations and on important regional problems, as
well as interaction in the CIS, including the Collective Security
Treaty Organisation," the diplomat said.
"The Nagorno-Karabakh settlement will dominate the agenda. ... Russia
calls for continued Armenian-Azerbaijani dialogue at different levels,
primarily between the presidents of the two countries. We believe
that the parties to the conflict should work out a mutually acceptable
solution themselves," the spokesman said.
Russia "is ready to provide the most active assistance in this case
both on a bilateral level and as a co-chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group,
and become a guarantor of the reached agreements."
