ArmInfo. NATO is ready to consider the issue of Armenia's membership
in the Alliance after entry of a corresponding signal from Yerevan,
NATO/PFP Liaison Officer in the South Caucasus Zbigniew Rybacki told
journalists today.
'We understand that the issue of joining NATO is not included in the
agenda of Armenia's foreign policy, so, closer integration of NATO
with Armenia will become possible only after the republic changes
its stance', he said.
At the same time, Rybacki said that Armenia has to carry out
reformation of the institutional system more thoroughly, as NATO's
decision on inclusion of one or another state in its structure depends
just on this factor.
Armenia-NATO cooperation is built in accordance with the Individual
Partnership Actions Plan (IPAP) signed in December 2005. Armenia's
participation in IPAP supposes holding of periodical consultations
with NATO on regional security, development of this security strategy
and Armenia's military doctrine.
