/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Today Armenian-Russian relations are on high level
and their development and deepening is evident, Russian Foreign
Minister Sergey Lavrov stated to a joint press conference with RA
Acting Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian in Yerevan. He said those
15 years since the establishment of bilateral ties between the
two countries, as well as those 10 years after signing the Great
Agreement on cooperation between Armenia and Russia, became an
important stage in Armenian-Russian relations. "The 10-15 year term
is not a big one for the relation between Russia and Armenia, our
friendship and cooperation has a history of centuries. Today we are
strategic partners, Armenia is a CSTO active member-state in spite of
the fact that the country is included in NATO programs. Armenia and
Russia actively cooperate in all spheres - in economy, humanitarian
sector, and culture. Presidents Vladimir Putin and Robert Kocharian
spoke about perspectives and enlargement of bilateral ties during
their meeting in Sochi," the RF FM underscored.
In his part Vartan Oskanian stressed that the negotiation with his
Russian counterpart was productive. He noted they both discussed a
wide circle of regional and international problems, as well as the
issues concerning the Nagorno Karabakh conflict and situation around
Iran. "The agenda of the meeting was very large, particularly we
accentuated cooperation in security issues, transport communications
and energy sphere," the RA Acting FM underlined.
