/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia views relations with the NATO as an
important component of European integration policy, Armenian PM
Andranik Margaryan stated in an interview with the Commersant. In
his words, development of cooperation with the NATO issues directly
from the interests of regional security and Armenia will continue
joint programs with the Organization. "We work for qualitatively
enhancing the relations with the Alliance. Armenia has always advocated
development of regional cooperation within the Partnership for Peace
program and supports all NATO steps in that respect," he remarked. The
IPAP has had a central role in Armenia-NATO relations since 2004. "At
the same time Armenia is a CSTO member and builds its national security
system within the framework of that Organization," the PM added. He
noted that the desire to join an international organization is the
sovereign affair of any state. "In this regard we refer to Georgia's
willingness to join the NATO with understanding. It is important not
to admit appearance of new dividing lines in our region, where there
are many unsolved conflicts. Our position issues exactly from that
principle," Margaryan said.
