    YEREVAN, October 21. /ARKA/. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and
    his Armenian counterpart Serzh Sargsyan participated today in the
    opening ceremony of the Square of Russia in downtown Yerevan.

    "I am sincerely happy to be in Armenia again and to open with you
    a new square in Yerevan," Medvedev said, adding this landmark event
    testifies to sincere friendship between Armenian and Russian people.

    The Russian president expressed his gratitude for opening the Square
    of Russia in the heart of Yerevan, saying Armenia gives honor to
    democratic Russia and the centuries-old friendship of both nations.

    Medvedev said Russian people also trust and respect Armenians. "We
    highly appreciate Armenian-Russian friendly relations," the president
    said, vowing staunch support to strategy partnership, cultural and
    humanitarian projects.

    To establish closer relations, Armenia and Russia must boost bilateral
    cooperation and try to meet together global and regional challenges,
    according to Medvedev.

    The Russian leader stressed the importance of coordinating steps in
    the world arena to ensure stability in the region.

    "Dear friends, good old neighbors always rejoice at each others'
    success, and we are happy to see Armenia prospering every day,"
    Medvedev said, underlining Armenia's progress in the past ten
    years. "We are interested in an economically robust, prosperous and
    strong Armenia," the president added.

    The Russian president said he believes Armenia also wishes Russia well.

    "Making progress, we guarantee effective cooperation for both the
    welfare of both nations," Medvedev said, adding both countries have
    a political will and desire for boosting business relations and help
    each other.

    The Russian leader said he enjoys the sunny autumn of Armenia and
    the warm welcome of Armenian people.

    This is Medvedev's fist two-day official visit to Armenia. The Russian
    president arrived in Yerevan on Moday.
