ARMENIA AND RUSSIA TO EXCHANGE STUDENTS

YEREVAN, MARCH 30.ARMINFO. “We suggested the Armenian side to create
conditions for the education of the Armenian students in Moscow. The
number of the Armenian students will depend on the number of the
Russian students that will study in Yerevan,” professor Mikhail Meyer,
head of the Institute for the Asian and the African States at the
Moscow State University, said this today.

He said that the Russian side is especially interested in studying
the Old Armenian(Grabar), as this language is a key to a number of
valuable historical archives in Matenadaran. Besides, Moscow finds it
necessary to prepare specialists of the Armenian studies. Mr. Meyer
added that the Armenian language is already taught at his institute.

“President Putin emphasized that the Armenian-Russian relations do
not keep in line with the level of strategic partnership and the
Russians don’t know Armenia well,” he said.
