North Atlantic Alliance opened an information center in the downtown
area of Armenian capital Yerevan on Wednesday.
The opening of the information center is one of the items in
NATO-Armenian special partnership plan and one of Armenia's obligations
under provisions of this document, Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister
Arman Kirakosian said.
He thanked NATO governing institutions, and in particular the
Alliance's Public Diplomacy Division, for assistance in setting up
and equipping the center.
Special representative of NATO Secretary General for the Caucasus
and Central Asia, Robert Simmons, who arrived here as part of his
tour of the region, visited the center and voiced an opinion that
the fact of its opening demonstrates Armenia's intention to enhance
contacts with the alliance.
The information center will host debates and discussions, the diplomat
said, adding that it will be better for Armenia, if the number of
such meetings increases.
The official activity of the center begins on November 1.
