    Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanian will visit Russia on July
    5-7, a source at the Russian Foreign Ministry's information department
    told Itar-Tass on Friday.

    Oskanian is expected to meet with the Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei
    Lavrov, and the chairman of the State Duma Committee on CIS affairs and
    ties with compatriots, Andrei Kokoshin.

    The two parties will focus on cooperation in the CIS format, including
    in the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO) and the Eurasian
    Economic Community (EurAsEC). They will also discuss pooling the two
    foreign ministry's efforts to improve the situation in the North
    Caucasus.

    "The Nagorno-Karabakh problem will be of special attention," the source
    said. "Russia is ready to help settle the conflict and take on the role
    of a guarantor to an agreement the two parties will come to."

    Russia and Armenia will also touch upon the development of trade,
    economic, cultural and humanitarian cooperation.
