Lavrov to discuss Armenia-Russia cooperation for Caucasus security

PanARMENIAN.Net - During a visit to Armenia, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and his Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian will consider the Armenia-Russia cooperation to ensure security in the Caucasus.



The Ministers will also discuss the situation that emerged due to irresponsible actions of the Georgian leadership, said Andrey Nesterenko, a spokesman for the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.



"The top diplomats will touch on cooperation within CIS and CSTO as well as within international structures, including the UN, CoE and OSCE. The Russian-Armenian economic relations will also be in focus. As to the Nagorno Karabakh problem, Russia will support any solution acceptable for all parties to conflict. Armenians and Azerbaijanis are responsible for the conflict resolution while Russia is ready to stand as guarantor of their agreement," he said, the RF MFA press office reported.
