    The document prolonging deployment of Russian base in Armenia enables
    two countries jointly struggle against threats, RA Defense Minister
    Seyran Ohanyan said in response to journalists' question whether 5000-
    base in Gyumri can be responsible for security of all Armenian borders.

    According to him, the protocol along with other military factors
    ensures Armenian-Russian political and military cooperation. The
    Minister noted that presently the Gyumri base undergoes certain
    reforms implying structural and functional changes. "After reforms
    are carried out we will implement the provisions of the protocol,"
    he said. The Defense Minister stressed that signing of an agreement
    is in Armenia's interests, adding that new Russian bases will not be
    deployed in the republic.

    The protocol prolonging deployment of Russian base in Gyumri was
    signed on the margins of Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's state
    visit to Armenia.
