President Dmitry Medvedev and President Serzh Sarkisian discussed a
wide range of issues of Russian-Armenian cooperation, in particular
prospects for expanding production and technological cooperation,
further cooperation among small and medium businesses and opportunities
for promoting mutual investments. The two sides also agreed on steps
to assist a number of major projects being carried out by Russian
companies in Armenia.
There was an exchange of views on important regional and international
issues. Dmitry Medvedev and Serzh Sarkisian reaffirmed their readiness
to coordinate foreign policy activities on a bilateral and multilateral
basis, including through interaction in the CIS and the Collective
Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) in view of Armenia's forthcoming
presidency of the CSTO. There was also a discussion of the prospects
of resolving the Nagorny Karabakh conflict.
Following the meeting, Dmitry Medvedev and Serzh Sarkisian issued a
joint statement.
It said, in part, that the views of Russia and Armenia on current
international problems are either identical or very close.
The two sides plan to cooperate closely in creating foreign policy
on a bilateral basis and within the framework of international
organisations in order to strengthen peace, stability and security
on both a regional and global scale.
At the end of the Russian-Armenian talks, Dmitry Medvedev and Serzh
Sarkisian made statements to the press.
This is the third meeting between the Presidents of Russia and Armenia
in 2008. Serzh Sarkisian came to Moscow in March and to St Petersburg
for the informal CIS summit in June of this year.
At that time, the head of the Russian state invited the President of
Armenia to come to Russia on an official visit.
