Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan and Russian President Vladimir
Putin have completed their meeting in Sochi.
The press service of the Kremlin reports that the presidents have
discussed urgent problems of Russian-Armenian cooperation and ways to
settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Before the meeting Putin said that Armenia and Russia enjoy friendly
strategic relations, which has been proved by Armenia's recent
decision to join the Customs Union and the Eurasian Economic Union.
"Of course, we have many questions to discuss. This is also an
opportunity for us to discuss questions concerning the Nagorno-
Karabakh settlement," Putin said.
Sargsyan said that the last time he met with Putin was three months
ago, so, there is need to sum up certain results. "I would like to
discuss some questions concerning the integration processes, more
specifically, Armenia's accession to the Eurasian Economic Union,"
Sargsyan said.
He expressed concern over the situation in Ukraine. "If you think it
necessary, Mr. Putin, please inform me of the measures Russia is
taking in this context and I will inform you of the situation in our
region and Azerbaijan's motives to escalate tensions on its border
with Armenia and contact line with Nagorno-Karabakh," Sargsyan said.
Earlier in the day Putin met with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.
Among other questions the presidents discussed the situation in
Nagorno-Karabakh.
On Sunday Putin, Sargsyan and Aliyev will hold a trilateral meeting.
