    ARMENIAN MINISTERS MEET WITH DE HOOP SCHEFFER

    Armenia's Foreign Minister Edvard Nalbandian and Defense Minister
    Seiran Ohanian had a meeting in Brussels with NATO Secretary General
    Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, the Armenian Foreign Ministry said.

    The ministers and De Hoop Scheffer discussed "Armenia-NATO cooperation
    under the Individual Partnership Action Plan (IPAP) and the Partnership
    for Peace program," the ministry told Interfax.

    IPAPs are open to countries seeking closer relations with NATO and
    capable of building closer ties with the alliance.

    Nalbandian and Ohanian attended a meeting of the North Atlantic
    Council in Brussels on Wednesday.

    The Council credited Armenia with having made good progress in
    implementing its IPAP and expressed support for Armenian moves to
    improve Armenian-Turkish relations.

    Nalbandian briefed the Council on Armenia's foreign policy priorities,
    on efforts to bridge rifts between Armenia and Turkey and on work
    being done to settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the Armenian
    ministry said.

    Ohanian spoke about Armenia's current security and defense reforms.
