Strategic relations with Russia of much importance to Armenia
by Yelena Protopopova
Strategic relations with Russia are now of special importance to
Armenia, holds Vartan Oskanyan, the Armenian foreign minister. ``The
question of security is now the main question for Armenia, so it is
very important that we have strategic relations with Russia,'' the
minister said. ``We treasure good relations with Russia,'' he said.
During a conversation with students of Moscow State University of
International Relations, (University - MGIMO), the minister also
touched upon railway transport communication with Russia. He said the
opening of the Abkhazian stretch of the Russian-Georgian railway to
traffic would be of positive importance for Armenia and Russia.
``With the opening of the Abkhazian stretch of the railway to
traffic, trade turnover between Armenia and Russia will increase,''
the minister said.
