    Moscow, Mar 24 (Prensa Latina) Russian President Vladimir Putin
    exhorted to preserve and increase the links with Armenia in the
    future, as he received Armenian president-elect Serzh Sarkisian in
    the Kremlin Monday.

    "I congratulate you for the electoral results, because I know how
    complicated political processes in Armenia are," Putin told his guest
    during the dialogue with Sarkisian.

    Sarkisian will be invested on April 9 and was also received by
    Dimitri Medvedev, winner of the presidential elections in Russia,
    who will be invested on May 7.

    Putin has stated more than once that the bilateral relations have
    absence of sharp problems between them.

    Erevan is the most important allied of Russia in the Independent
    States Community, after signing an agreement on acquisition of gas
    at a fixed price of 110 dollars for each 1,000 cubic meters until 2009.

    In exchange, Erevan gave the property of important industrial plants
    and scientific investigation institutes to Russian enterprises and
    gave total mastering of gas pipeline in construction from Iran to
    Russian gas enterprise GAZPROM.

    >From the geo-political point of view Armenia counts on the support of
    Russia in its historical difference with Turkey and the territorial
    conflict with Azerbaidzhan because of Nagorny Karabaj.

    Recently Russia supported Armenia with its vote at the United Nations
    during the debate for a resolution project on the topic, presented
    by Azerbaidzhan.

    Russian troops withdrawing from Georgia, for an agreement with Tbilisi
    were relocated in Armenia as guarantors of the borders.
