The military cooperation of Armenia and Poland has become sustainable
after Defense Minister of Armenia visited Poland in December 2009,
Polish Ambassador to Armenia Zdzislaw Raczynski said in a press
conference, on Monday.
He said that the two parties conduct a political dialogue, discuss
defense reforms, in particular, upgrade of army culture. In addition,
the diplomat said, the two parties study possible establishment of
military- technical cooperation.
It is not a secret, the Ambassador said, that there is Russian and
Soviet military hardware in Armenia.
"Therefore, some project of modernization of defensive technologies
can be interesting to the Armenian party. I mean the anti-aircraft
defense," the Ambassador said.
He said that he is not informed of any specific agreements in the given
sphere, but discussion of such a sensitive topic promoted confidence
between the parties.
In addition, Ambassador Raczynski said that Poland would like to offer
Armenia a possibility of training its officers at Polish universities.
"We think that it is the people and government of Armenia that must
select allies and organizations which Armenia sees its security in. It
will be in favor of Armenia and will promote mutual understanding
between the two countries if Armenian officers study not only at
universities of their traditional allies," the Ambassador said.
