`What's so absurd about that? Former presidents visit different
countries; our former president has gone to Iran,' said RA Minister of
Foreign Affairs Edward Nalbandian, speaking at a press conference
today and referring to former RA president Rober Kocharian's recent
visit to Tehran.
Nalbandian said that it's no secret that Armenia is in favour of
strengthening relations with Iran, adding that Iranian Minister of
Foreign Affairs Manouchehr Mottaki will visit Armenia on January 26.
`That [Armenia-Iran relations] was said when Mr. Kochrian was
president and it's being said today. It's natural that Armenia strives
to strengthen relations with it's neighbouring countries,' said the
Armenian foreign minister.
Nalbandian highlighted that Robert Kocharian had gone to Iran upon an
invitation by that country's leadership.
