Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan continues his visit to Georgia. He
plans to meet representatives of Armenian communities and attend a
Georgian-Armenian business forum.
Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili proposed a concept of the
Single Caucasus to Sargsyan, Mir reports.
Saakashvili believes in a union of the Caucasus, such as the European
Union or the Single Economic Space. There is no alternative, the
president explains.
The sides plan to discuss a simplified border crossing mechanism. The
crossing procedure was simplified from 30 to 5 minutes. It would be
a transparent border such as the one France and Switzerland have.
Georgia has such border with Turkey.
Sargsyan agreed with Saakashvili's initiatives. He said that Georgia
is a strategic partner for Armenia.
