Armenia will continue its efforts towards reinforcement of the
Commonwealth of Independent States as a structure for all-inclusive
cooperation on a wide range of issue," Armenian Foreign Minister
Edward Nalbandian said in a interview with Interfax.
Edward Nalbandian said "Armenia stands for harmonization of integration
processes, not their contradiction." "We have never declared we prefer
the Euro-Atlantic cooperation to all others," the Minister said.
"We have allied strategic relations with Armenia. We are linked by
deep ties, which forms the solid ground, on which we can add new
stones into our strong allied relations, which have withstood the
test of time," the Minister said.
"As for the CIS, Armenia is not only a founder, but also one of
the active members of the Commonwealth. Our country is one of the
leaders as regards the number of signed adopted documents within the
framework of the CIS. Armenia was one of the first to ratify the Free
Trade Zone Agreement," Edward Nalbandian added.
The Minister underlined that "Armenia is successfully developing its
relations with the European Union." "We have completed the preparation
of the Association Agreement and are negotiating the creation of a
Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area."
"Armenia is conducting an open and predictable policy. We are
determined to further deepen our allied relations and develop
partnership with all counties willing to develop cooperation on a
mutually beneficial ground for the sake of the country's maximal
involvement in international and regional formats," the Armenian
Foreign Minister said.
"The dialogue between different integration structures can contribute
to the formation of a common space without any dividing lines for
the benefit of all states and their harmonious development," Edward
Nalbandian concluded.
