    ARMENIA ATTACHES GREAT IMPORTANCE TO CSTO FORCE, PROMOTES TIES

    The establishment of the Collective Operational Reaction Force (CORF)
    of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) is crucial to
    Armenia's security, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said.

    "We regard the creation [of the CORF] as an important component of
    efforts aimed at enhancing Armenia's security," Sargsyan said at an
    annual meeting with Foreign Ministry officials and heads of Armenia's
    diplomatic missions abroad.

    "Serious progress was made during Armenia's chairmanship of the
    CSTO. Key solutions intended to improve the organization's efficiency
    were formulated and adopted. I am primarily speaking about the
    establishment of the CORF. Its first exercises will begin soon. To
    be more precise, the first stage has already started," the Armenian
    president said.

    Yerevan has also been developing relations with NATO, Sargsyan said.

    "The results of our Individual Partnership Action Plan are
    satisfactory. We are also satisfied with the level and results of
    Armenia's involvement in international peacekeeping operations,"
    he added.
