Today Michael Harutunyan, the minister of defence
presented the final report of 2007. He said that it is
planned to hold `Line-2008′ and NATO’s `Joint Bow’
projects in Armenia in 2008.
According to him the passing year was rich in
accomplishing international co operations. Last year
Armenia-NATO co operations activities were set and the
ministry verified its plans and aims. He also added
that the Ministry signed 10 international contracts
last year.

level of peacekeeping forces abroad. Armenia plans to
keep a battalion in Kosovo instead of a division in
2008.
According to defence minister Armenia has got a
powerful army to sustain the forces of Azerbaijan
against both Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, as Armenia
is the guarantee of peace and security of NK.
