    MOSCOW, March 6 (Xinhua) -- The Armenian peacekeeping forces will
    continue their missions in Kosovo and Iraq, First Deputy Defense
    Minister, Colonel-General Sergei Oganyan, said on Thursday.

    Armenia "should fulfill its obligations on ensuring security in any
    region of the world and on the international scene, as it is not
    only a consumer, but also a participant in the international security
    system," Oganyan, who heads the general headquarters of the country's
    armed forces, was quoted by the Itar-Tass news agency as saying.

    By this Yerevan has won respect not only of superpowers, but also of
    authoritative international organizations, including those "that are
    engaged in the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict that is
    very important for Armenia," Oganyan said.

    "We've proved that Armenia's armed forces not only guarantee
    independence and integrity of the republic's border, but also show high
    responsibility in fulfilling tasks in Kosovo and in Iraq," he said.
