ROBERT KOCHARIAN: ARMENIA WILL CONTINUE INTEGRATION IN FAMILY OF DEMOCRATIC NATIONS
Armenia will continue its way to full integration into the family of democratic nations, which requires durable and consistent work. It was stated by Armenian President Robert Kocharian at today's meeting with non-resident Ambassadors of a number of countries, who participate in a meeting being held in Yerevan. The Armenian leader noted the serious progress made due to the complementary policy the country had adopted several years ago. In his words, its essence is not in getting dividends from common and regional contradictions, but settling them. "Highlighting close cooperation of Armenia with European and other international structures, we see the future of our country in marching in step with the world," R. Kocharian noted. The President also answered the questions the diplomats were interested in. These mainly referred settlement of the Karabakh problem, regional developments and internal political situation.
