RA Defense Minister and Hans Jochen-Schmidt, Ambassador Extraordinary

by the Euro-integration processes, and complex programmes were
implemented in Armenia in this direction, particularly, for complying
the security system of the country with European standards. Armenia
is interested in establishing sustainable peace in the region, and in
this respect highly assesses the cooperation with the European partner
countries in such issues, like the Armenian-Turkish relations and the
solution of the NK problem in accordance with international principles.
Hrayr Karapetyan thanked for the support shown by Germany in the
sphere of defense, particularly, in the spheres of military-medical
and military education of Armenia. He acquainted the guest with
the ongoing reforms and implemented legislative amendments in the
RA defense sphere, adding that this year the NA would adopt the
Disciplinary Statute, where the officers' and military servicemen's
rights and obligations would be specified.
Christian Schmidt expressed satisfaction for the Armenian-German
military cooperation procedure and expressed hope the
inter-parliamentary cooperation would be more activated in that
direction. He expressed his gratitude for the participation in the
German troops in Afghanistan and for the important contribution.
In the course of the meeting the issues related to the European
integration processes, regional security, the Armenian-German
