arrived in Armenia on a two-day official visit with his wife, Sandra

RA President's residence was followed by Presidents Serzh Sargsyan's
and Mikheil Saakashvili's tete-a-tete talk, after which official

Mentioning that few peoples in the world can be proud of such

Armenian and Georgian peoples, S. Sargsyan said: "We are obliged to
multiply what we inherited from our ancestors."
S. Sargsyan and M. Saakashvili said that frequent meetings and

and ways of their solution.

as educational-cultural cooperation were discussed during the
negotiations. The process of Armenian-Georgian border's demarcation
was also touched upon.

events in various spheres and making them traditional. He, in
particular, suggested holding annual school olympiads in various
subjects, as well as sports contests. They arranged to hold the first
school olympiad this autumn.
At the end of the meeting S. Sargsyan awarded Order of Honor to Mikheil
Saakashvili, which is the highest state award of Armenia given to
