Cooperation with Euro and CIS Structures Expedient to ArmeniaSeptember 14, 2006 - 18:46 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "Armenia's complementary policy today is the most acceptable from the point of view of state security," stated Armenian Deputy FM Arman Kirakosyan at an open lesson at Kirakosyan School in Yerevan. In his words, Russia is a strategic partner of Armenia, however this should not result in official Yerevan's refusal from cooperation with European structures and the NATO. "If it is the case, Armenia will fall behind its neighbors, which will have a negative impact on state security," the Deputy FM said. Kirakosyan noted the importance of signing the Action plan within the ENP. "Georgia and Azerbaijan are also part of that process, thus refusing from cooperation with Euro and CIS structures is not expedient to Armenia," he said, reports IA Regnum.
