    US MISSILE DEFENCE UNITS DEPLOYMENT IN CAUCASUS UNACCEPTABLE - FM

    ITAR-TASS, Russia
    March 21 2007

    YEREVAN, March 21 (Itar-Tass) - Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan
    Oskanian considers the deployment of the U.S. missile defence
    components in the Caucasus unacceptable.

    "To a larger degree, our region is rather complicated and any such
    action is unacceptable here," he told a news conference on Wednesday.

    He pointed out that statements about the deployment of the U.S. missile
    defence units in the region "have not been confirmed so far and remain
    at the level of talks."

    Oskanian believes that "Russia and the U.S. have much more common
    interests than discrepancies and differences."

    "International interests require Moscow-Washington cooperation,"
    he said. "There are problems that cannot be resolved on one's own -
    these are the fight against terrorism, energy and transport security."
