    Putin meets Armenian president


    Davos, 29 January: Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has held a
    working meeting with President Serzh Sargsyan of Armenia.

    Putin thanked the Armenian leader for taking part in the recent
    international meeting on gas industry problems, which was held in
    Moscow at the initiative of Russian President Dmitriy Medvedev. "This
    was a useful meeting," Putin said.

    He also said he was satisfied with the pace of the development of
    bilateral relations. "Russia is Armenia's first trade economic
    partner. We have a very trustful partnership and trustful political
    dialogue," Putin said.

    For his part, Sargsyan said that every opportunity must be used to
    develop the dialogue. He said that this necessity "stems from the
    interests of our peoples".

    Sargsyan also said he was pleased that trade between Russia and
    Armenia exceeded 1bn dollars in 2008.
