    "We are in a security system which completely suffices us," RA Prime
    Minister Serge Sargsyan declared in an interview with "Moskovskiy
    Komsomolets."

    "We do not plan to change anything. I don't think we must joint NATO,"
    Head of the Armenian Government said.

    As to the NATO Information Center, "the opening of which is being
    ascribed to him", Serge Sargsyan stated, "It looks like that my local
    ill-wishers have thought out those rumors about the NATO center and
    then it reached to you in Russia. The matter is that the NATO office
    works in Moscow long ago and on the same conditions, which we have
    here. Or may be you think that Russia must cooperate with NATO and
    Armenia must butt with the alliance? To tell the truth, I am glad
    that some people in Russia consider me as a pro-western politician,
    because a lot of people in the West consider me as a pro-Russian
    leader. And this is the very confirmation of the fact that actually
    I am a pro-Armenian politician".

    The Armenian Prime Minister said "part of our Officers study in Russia,
    the rest study in the West, and we have never concealed it." In Serge
    Sargsyan's words, "it is beneficial for us to cooperate with Russia,
    since being a CSTO member state we can purchase military goods at he
    same price as the Russian army.

    "We are implementing an Individual Partnership Action Plan with
    NATO. It is a good level of cooperation. We intend to deepen these
    relations. It is useful," the Prime Minister said.
