    (Xinhua)10:09, November 30, 2011 TBILISI, Nov. 29 (Xinhua) -- The
    president of the South Caucasus country of Georgia on Tuesday promised
    that his country's border crossing with neighboring Armenia will be
    as transparent as that in between Switzerland and France.

    "Passengers will be checked in their cars just once," said Georgian
    President Mikheil Saakashvili after meeting his Armenian counterpart
    Serzh Sargsyan, "The Georgian-Armenian border will be as transparent
    as the Swiss-French border in the nearest future."

    Sargsyan arrived in Tbilisi on Tuesday for a two-day official visit.

    The Georgian president described the bilateral relations as
    unparalleled. As many as 600,000 Armenians had crossed the Georgian
    border so far this year.

    President Saakashvili told the media that negotiations between the
    two countries on simplifying border crossing would soon be over.

    Sargsyan thanked the Georgian president for the warm reception.

    "Armenia and Georgia are building their cooperation on the basis
    of brotherly relations," he said. "All this is aimed at making our
    peoples' lives more secure.

    "We will be able to diffuse the tension and take steps toward conflict
    solution in the region," the Armenian president added.

    Sargsyan told the media that trade between Armenia and Georgia had
    increased by 20 percent this year.
