YEREVAN. Sept 17
The Armenian Foreign Ministry has applauded the deal brokered by
Moscow and Washington that Syria's chemical weapon stockpiles must
be destroyed or removed by mid-2014.
"Armenia welcomes the proposals that stem from the agreement reached
by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State
John Kerry in Geneva that offers the opportunity to destroy these
chemical weapons and rule out their use in Syria," ministry spokesman
Tigran Balayan told Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty's Armenian Service.
The Armenian ministry's press service told Interfax, citing Balayan,
that these initiatives "may pave the way toward looking for a political
and peaceful solution to the Syrian crisis that will stop the suffering
of the Syrian people and tens of thousands of Syria's Armenians,
who are an indivisible part of the Syrian nation."
