YEREVAN, DECEMBER 27, ARMENPRESS. The Armenian-Russian relations
are developing in all the spheres. Military cooperation is on a very
high level. The Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of the
Russian Federation to the Republic of Armenia Vyacheslav Kovalenko
answered the questions of "Armenpress".
- Mr. Ambassador, what is Your assessment of the present level of
the Armenian-Russian technical military cooperation?
- The Republic of Armenia is a member-state of the Collective Security
Treaty Organization and is a part of the CSTO fast response forces.
Relations and ties between our countries in technical military sphere
are on a good working level. The cooperation between the corresponding
administrations of the two countries is rather active. The Minister
of Defense of the Russian Federation Mr. Serdyukov paid a visit to
Armenia this year. The agreement about stay of the Russian military
base in the Republic of Armenia for 49 years is a good signal to all
those powers, who want to intensify the situation in the region. It
is a good message to all those, who attempt to threat Armenia or
destabilize situation in Armenia.
- How and where are You going to celebrate New Year?
- I shall celebrate New Year here in Yerevan. It has become a
good tradition since my arrival in Armenia. We celebrate New Year
in the Embassy with all our staff. There are more than 100 people
working in the Embassy. We celebrate it with a Christmas tree, Santa
Claus, champagne, good dishes and till morning (laughing). (THE
