    Vladimir Putin Holds Meeting with President of Armenia



    Moscow. OREANDA-NEWS . Vladimir Putin and President of Armenia Serzh
    Sargsyan discussed pressing issues of bilateral cooperation.

    PRESIDENT OF RUSSIA VLADIMIR PUTIN: Mr Sargsyan, welcome to Moscow and
    thank you for coming here on the eve of May 9. Congratulations once
    again to you and to the people of Armenia on the coming Victory Day.

    Since my visit to Armenia, a great deal has been done to implement the
    agreements we reached then. I am happy to have the opportunity to
    compare notes today, to see what else needs to be done and in what
    areas we should speed up our efforts.

    In any case, I am happy to say that Russia remains Armenias leading
    trade and economic partner, and last year our trade went up by 11
    percent compared to 2012 (10.6%). This year we are maintaining the
    growth rate, and Russia has retained its position as the leading
    investor in Armenias economy.

    I am very happy to see you. Welcome once again.

    PRESIDENT OF ARMENIA SERZH SARGSYAN: Thank you, Mr Putin. Allow me to
    thank you for your invitation to visit Moscow within the framework of
    the CSTO summit meeting, for this opportunity to discuss with you the
    pressing issues in our relations. Once again, I would like to
    congratulate you and the people of Russia on the Great Victory.

    I am happy that RussianArmenian strategic relations and our
    partnership are developing dynamically. We will continue to make every
    effort to further expand these relations.

    The agreements reached during your state visit and during our meeting
    in Moscow on September 3 have undoubtedly enriched our agenda.

    The implementation of these agreements will undoubtedly create new
    opportunities for close cooperation in all spheres: in foreign policy,
    in military technology and the economy.

    We are prepared to work actively. I believe this is in line with the
    historical traditions of friendship between our nations and our
    peoples will.

    I am happy to be in Moscow today. Thank you for the invitation and for
    the conversation we had. Thank you.
