Serzh Sargsyan, currently in Belgium on a working visit, met today
with the NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen. At the end of
the meeting, the Armenian President and the NATO Secretary General
issued a joint statement.
The statement in particular runs that Armenia is actively cooperating
with NATO in all the spheres, the process of reforms in the defense,
security and emergency situation spheres is going on efficiently
which is a part of the domestic reforms of Armenia.
In this connection, the statement reads that NATO-Armenia Individual
Partnership Plan is the keystone of the partnership. Last November,
we confirmed the steps of the third stage of the project and engaged
in the achievement of the goals.
We highly assessed the continuous process of NATO-Armenia dialogue and
in this context I attached importance to NATO-Armenia meeting to start
in a while, which is a good opportunity to present to our partners
from NATO, our ideas on the challenges and security issues the South
Caucasus is facing, as well as on overcoming them, Serzh Sargsyan said.
He said the Secretary General and the Alliance appreciate Armenia's
efforts aimed at the maintenance of global peace and security. We
realize that the current threats and challenges can be overcome only
by way of joint efforts.
Serzh Sargsyan added that he had discussed with the NATO Secretary
General the latest developments of the Karabakh issue settlement.
Azerbaijan refuses radically any proposal aimed at confidence
building aimed at promotion of regional cooperation or weakening
of tension at the line of contact, said Serzh Sargsyan adding that
Azerbaijan, unfortunately, disagrees with the removal of snipers and
the investigation of border incidents. Moreover, Azerbaijan has never
ceased making war appeals. Just a few days ago, Azerbaijan's president
stated that number one enemy of Azerbaijan is the Armenians worldwide,
said Serzh Sargsyan.
According to him, they agreed with the Secretary General that the
conflict needs to be solved through peace measures and negotiations
within the Minsk Group. We are sure the settlement of the Karabakh
issue is possible only through respect of self-determination and
comprehensive security guarantees, the joint statement runs.
