Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev met with his Armenian
counterpart, Hovik Abrahamyan, in Sochi last week to discuss bilateral
trade and other relations.
Medvedev said the meeting was an opportunity to discuss a wide range of
issues, including trade ties, investment and humanitarian cooperation,
ARKA reports.
“Our countries are very close allies, our countries and our nations
are close to each other,” Medvedev said, according to ARKA.
Abrahamyan said he hoped to discuss matters of great importance to
his country.
One of the biggest issues for Armenia is the delay in its accession
to the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU). Before the meeting in Sochi,
Abrahamyan denied that the dispute over Nagorno-Karabakh is not an
impediment, Voice of Russia reports.
