WASHINGTON. -Wiki Leaks published February 18, 2005 cable, where
U.S. deputy Ambassador to Armenia Anthony Godfrey presented visit of
Russian FM Sergei Lavrov to Yerevan.
Lavrov made clear Russia's continued support for the OSCE Minsk
Group process in resolving the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and pledged
continued Russian support to block any attempt by Azerbaijan to move
potential conflict settlement into any other arena, such as the UN.
Lavrov also pushed hard for Armenia to limit its cooperation with NATO
and western military structures and stressed that Armenia needed to
remember that its military relationship with Russia was central to
its security.
FM Oskanian reportedly responded that Armenia's growing relationship
with NATO does not endanger its close ties to Russia, and that Armenia
cannot let its neighbors, Georgia and Azerbaijan, move toward closer
engagement with NATO without doing the same.
