Talks with Armenian President Serzh Sargsian focused on the prospects
for stepping up cooperation “on the platforms of the CIS, the CSTO
(Collective Security Treaty Organization) and other international
organizations,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said.
The joint Russian-Armenian intergovernmental commission will start
from discussing the problem of “how to apply cooperation between
the three Customs Union countries (Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan)
towards Armenia,” Putin said.
“Although we do not share common borders, it is possible to discuss
and find such tools which work in the tripartite union and can be
applied towards Armenia as well,” Putin said.
