    Border control in North Caucasus not aimed against Armenia

    YEREVAN, October 1 (Itar-Tass) - Border control imposed on the Russian
    border in the North Caucasus is not aimed against transit of cargoes
    to and out of Armenia, Chairman of the Federation Council Sergei
    Mironov declared on Friday.

    Mironov arrived in Yerevan on an official visit as the head of a
    delegation of the upper chamber of the Russian parliament.

    Mironov expressed the hope that the Armenian leadership and the people
    will express understanding of the causes that forced Russia to
    terminate transit of cargoes across Russia's state border in the North
    Caucasus. Many terrorists who feel at ease in Georgia go straight to
    our territory, Mironov said. After the tragedy in Beslan we had to
    take definite measures, he added.

    Russia and Armenia are among the countries, which occupy top positions
    in the struggle against terrorism, Mironov said. The coming discussion
    with the Armenian leadership will be another contribution to the
    common wall that should rebuff terrorism all over the world, Mironov
    stressed.
