    Russia's President Vladimir Putin, who is visiting Armenia on December
    2, said that Russia will strengthen its positions in South Caucasus.

    He made the remarks while addressing the third Russian-Armenian
    Interregional Forum in Gyumri, Armenia's second-largest town which
    hosts Russia's 102nd military base.

    "As far as Transcaucasus is concerned, Russia has never intended to
    go away from here. On the contrary, we are going to strengthen our
    positions in the Transcaucasus," Putin said.

    After applause in the hall, he continued: "We will be strengthening
    our positions in the Transcaucasus drawing upon all the best that we
    have inherited from our ancestors, drawing upon on good relationship
    with all the countries of the region, including with Armenia."
