At the joint press conference of the Russian and Armenian Foreign
Ministers Edward Nalbandian mentioned, "A friendship of many centuries
connects us with Georgia. We observe our relations from the perspective
of future; not only because 70-75 percent of Armenian commodities
pass through the Georgian territory".
"We have difficulties with the Georgian authorities and not the
people", said S. Lavrov.
Answering the questions of the journalists, he mentioned that Russia is
not concerned over the Armenian intention to continue the cooperation
with NATO and improve relations with Georgia in economic and other
spheres.
"We keep up the cooperation format with NATO states, as well; we have
also a NATO-Russia council that continues to act, though some of
the union's states want to impede discussions of several important
issues. Nevertheless, it is their choice. We have no divergence of
views with our Armenian colleagues on how to cooperate with NATO",
Russian Foreign Minister underlined.
What about the Armenian agreement with Georgia to improve the economic
relations, according to Lavrov, Russia only welcomes it and hopes that
those arrangements will help not to repeat what happened during the
Caucasian crisis - the artificial limitations by Georgia on changing
of poles.
