Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is to make an official visit
to Armenia on June 22-23.

leadership of the country and his counterpart Edward Nalbandian. The
sides will continue "the substantive bilateral dialogue on further
development of allied cooperation and strategic partnership between
our countries", the Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday, June 11.
Special attention will be paid to the implementation of agreements
reached at the top and high levels, primarily during Russian President
Vladimir Putin's state visit to Armenia on December 2, 2013.
The ministry said that Lavrov's visit would give a new impetus to
mutually advantageous cooperation between the two countries.
Trade turnover between Russia and Armenia is growing steadily. "Last
year, trade turnover increased by 10.6% from the previous year and
keeps growing this year too. And Russia remains the leading investor
in Armenia," President Vladimir Putin said during a meeting with
Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan in May.
Putin pointed put that during his latest visit to Armenia they had
reached the important agreements and invited Sargsyan to "synchronize
watches" and see "what else needs to be done and where we should
speed up our work".
Sargsyan said that Russian-Armenian relations were developing
dynamically and assured Putin that Yerevan would seek to intensify
them, reported ITAR-TASS
"We are ready for active work. This is consistent with the historical
tradition of friendship between our nations," he said.
