    The Armenian authorities express their support for Russia's proactive
    role in promoting peace and cooperation in the region, Armenian
    Foreign Minister Edvard Nalbandian told a joint news conference with
    his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov.

    "We have discussed the latest events in our region and the importance
    of efforts aimed at ensuring regional stability and security.

    We expressed our support for Russia's proactive role in promoting
    peace and cooperation in the region," Nalbandian said.

    The Armenian minister said his meeting with Lavrov also paid due
    attention to negotiations on the Nagorno-Karabakh settlement process.

    "We once again reaffirmed our commitment to the soonest possible
    settlement of the conflict through exclusively peaceful means and
    within the framework of negotiations taking place on the basis of
    proposals put forth by the co-chairmen of the OSCE Minsk Group,"
    Nalbandian said.

    "I am convinced that this visit by the Russian foreign minister
    to Armenia will make a sound contribution to the policy aimed at
    comprehensively strengthening bilateral relations, including their
    foreign policy component, that the governments of both Armenia and
    Russia are pursuing," he said.
