Armenia parliamentary speaker calls for well-coordinated decisions with Russia
YEREVAN November 6
- Speaker of the Armenian parliament Ovik Abramyan called for
well-coordinated decisions and targeted actions with Russia. He has
made a statement in his speech of greetings to the participants in the
23rd meeting of the interparliamentary committee for cooperation
between the Armenian National Assembly and the Russian Federal
Assembly in the Armenian capital on Wednesday.
"Today our countries face hard challenges, which can be overcome only
through joint efforts based on well-coordinated decisions and targeted
actions," the parliamentary speaker said.
"Armenia's intention to join the Customs Union (Russia, Belarus,
Kazakhstan) requires from the interparliamentary committee to put on
the agenda the issues, which need immediate consideration and in which
optimal decisions should be found, moreover, not only in bilateral
relations," Abramyan noted.
"This process was launched already at the previous meeting of the
interparliamentary committee in the city of Belgorod," the speaker
recalled. The decisions of this meeting "certainly had a positive role
for Armenia to take this important political decision," he added.
"Presently Armenia begins to implement new projects, the special role
in which belongs to the country's National Assembly," the
parliamentary speaker said, referring to forthcoming Armenia's
accession in the Customs Union.
In this context, Abramyan is convinced that "the parliamentary
dimension in Armenian-Russian multifaceted cooperation will also give
major support in the drafting of new legislative acts."
