12:48 23/11/2013 » DAILY PRESS
Rumors are circulating in Russian political circles that in all
probability after Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to Armenia
the Armenian city of Gyumri will be renamed Aleksandropol, Hraparak
says.
`By doing so, Putin wishes to revive Russia’s former might in those
places. With Armenia’s entry into the Customs Union Gyumri will become
a border city between the Customs Union and NATO (Turkey),’ the
newspaper says.
