/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Currently on a working visit in Moscow, Armenia's
President-elect Serzh Sargsyan met Monday with Russia's President
Vladimir Putin, the Kremlin's press office reported.
Welcoming the guest, Mr Putin said, "First of all I would like to
congratulate you on the election results. I know that the political
process in Armenia has been anything but simple, but we are determined
that, whatever the outcome of the internal political process in
Armenia, everything that has been achieved during recent years in
bilateral relations between the Russian Federation and Armenia will
be maintained and developed in the future."
For his part, Mr Sargsyan thanked the Russian President for
invitation. "I am very glad to have this opportunity. Thank you for
the invitation and the warm greetings. We have been able to count
on your help in both in the run up to the election and after it, for
which I am really grateful. Both President Kocharian and our ambassador
conveyed your personal message to me. To be frank, we never expected
this sort of one-on-one approach. Thank you for that. I would like to
congratulate you on the success of the presidential campaign. We know
that Dmitry Medvedev and you share positions on any number of issues,
and in Armenia we hope his assumption of the office of President will
enable our relations to develop further. We need this and will work
to achieve it," he said.
