/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian Prime Minister Serge Sargsyan met
with Greek President Karolos Papoulias and the delegation led by
him. "The Armenian government is ready to promote implementation
of all agreements achieved by Presidents of Armenia and Greece and
strengthen ties between two friendly nations," Sargsyan said.
He expressed satisfaction with Greece's assistance in various fields,
specifically in the military sector.
"Working for a long time in the security system I have held numerous
meetings with Greek official departments. I have felt their friendly
attitude and readiness for cooperation. Expansion of our cooperation
is specifically important now, when Armenia is implementing the
Armenia-NATO Individual Partnership Action Plan (IPAP). In this view,
Greece's experience would be very useful," the RA PM said adding that
friendly states should settle urgent issues by uniting efforts.
For his part Mr Papoulias noted with regret that if Turkey could
change and abide by European values Armenia and Greece would not
have to target a major part of the GDP at security. "Armenia and
Greece always cooperate and support each other in all international
structures. Greece has gained enough experience in European integration
and Euro Atlantic partnership. We are ready to help Armenia,"
he emphasized.
The parties also referred to the activities of the Armenian-Greek
intergovernmental commission on cooperation. PM Serge Sargsyan marked
out agriculture, trade, tourism, education and defense as priority
lines in the 5-year program of the Armenian government.
"Greeks and Armenians have much in common. We managed to overcome all
difficulties and now we can make great achievements by cooperating
with each other," the Greek President said, the RA government's press
office reports.
