/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Russian and Armenian presidents will discuss
trade and military cooperation, prospects of energy projects and
interaction in regional organizations in Moscow on Monday, a Kremlin
source said Sunday. Nagorno Karabakh problem is also supposed to
be discussed.
Serzh Sargsyan will visit the Russian capital on an invitation from
Dmitry Medvedev on October 12.
"Regular confidential political dialogue at the highest level gives
dynamics to the Russian-Armenian partnership," the Kremlin source said,
adding that despite the global financial crisis, Russia retains the
positions of Armenia's leading foreign economic partner.
In January-August this year bilateral trade totaled $428.2 million
- a 20.2% drop against the same period in 2008, but successful
implementation of joint priority investment projects continues.
Medvedev and Sargsyan met Friday during a summit of the post-Soviet
Commonwealth of Independent States in the capital of Moldova, with
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev also taking part in the meeting
chiefly dedicated to discussions of the Nagorno Karabakh issue,
RIA Novosti reported.
