    ARMENIAN DEFENSE MINISTER VISITS GEORGIA

    Georgia

    Michael Harutyunyan, the Armenian defense minister, pays an official
    visit to Georgia on February 28-March 1, marking launch of, as the
    Georgian Ministry of Defense put it, "bilateral military cooperation"
    between the two countries.

    Harutyunyan met with his Georgian counterpart, Davit Kezerashvili,
    and foreign minister, Davit Bakradze, on February 28. He also plans
    to meet with President Saakashvili and Parliamentary Chairperson,
    Nino Burjanadze.

    The Georgian Defense Ministry said in its press release on February
    28 that "launch of bilateral military cooperation was discussed"
    during the meeting of the defense ministers of Armenia and Georgia.

    "No cooperation has been in place in this respect before," it said.

    It also said that Georgia would send its military attache to Yerevan.

    "There have been no official relations between the defense ministries
    of the two countries and we discussed to enhance relations and
    the first step will be sending of our military attache," Davit
    Kezerashvili, the Georgian defense minister, said.

    "Although there have been very high level economic and political
    relations between our two countries, there have been not a single
    agreement signed in the defense sphere between the two countries,"
    the Armenian defense minister said.
