YEREVAN, April 10. /ARKA/. Armenia's authorities stand ready to
back local competitive enterprises, RA President Serzh Sargsyan said
Thursday during his interview to the First Russian TV Channel.
"Our priority is to boost competitive enterprises that are ready to
keep making profits with government support," Sargsyan was quoted
saying.
Though Armenia is capable of overcoming difficulties on its own,
it also relies on its friends, the president added.
"The overwhelming majority of Armenia's citizens are apt to think
thousand ties connect us with Russia, considering this country to
be our strategic partner and friend," Sargsyan said, adding the
partnership between the two countries has been fixed by laws and
becomes apparent in everyday life.
Touching upon a possible thaw in Armenian-Turkish relations, the
Armenian president said "it is high time that Armenian authorities
launched a dialogue with Turkey."
To the question: "What will be the future of Armenian-Turkish
relations?" Sargsyan answered: "It is wrong to have closed borders
and hostile relations with neighbors in the 21st century."
The president expressed a hope that Armenia and Turkey would establish
diplomatic relations and open their border soon.
The First Russian TV Channel broadcast Thursday a piece of reportage
on RA President Sargsya n's first year of presidency.
