Cooperation with Russia doesn't hamper Armenia's ties with other
countries - official
MOSCOW March 27
Military-technological cooperation between Yerevan and Moscow
continues at a rapid pace, secretary of the Armenian National Security
Council Artur Bagdasarian told Interfax-AVN.
"Russia is Armenia's main military and political partner. It means
that cooperation in the military area continues actively, including in
the sphere of military-technological contacts," Bagdasarian said.
Political relations between Russia and Armenia are "at their highest",
the Armenian official said. "We are holding intensive dialogue in all
areas all the time," he said.
However, vigorous cooperation with Russia is not standing in the way
of Armenia's efforts to promote relations with other international
organizations and countries, including Georgia, Bagdasarian said. "We
favor good-neighborly relations with this country, despite tensions
between Tbilisi and Moscow. Stability in Georgia is important to
Armenia as well," he said.
"As far as the EU is concerned, we have a special cooperation
program. At its session, the Security Council of Armenia confirmed a
European neighborhood program for 2009-2011, which includes 195
specific reforms and measures in all areas. We will advance our
cooperation with the EU," he added.
