Armenia is not going to join NATO - defence ministry
The Armenian Defence Ministry said on Thursday that the republic is
not going to join NATO.
``The task of the membership in NATO is not set in Armenia's foreign
policy agenda,'' the ministry's press service said on Thursday.
The George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies will hold
a seminar in Armenia on February 5-7.
Some of mass media said, citing the center, that Armenia's joining
NATO is to be discussed at the meeting.
``This does not correspond to reality and does not ensue from the
spirit of Armenia's individual partnership with NATO and from the
interests of the republic's relations with the Marshall center,'' the
Defence Ministry said.
