YEREVAN, April 26. /ARKA/. Lithuania intends to develop cooperation
with Armenia, Lithuanian president Valdas Adamkus stated at a news
conference held jointly with RA President Robert Kocharyan.

relations, determination of the major tasks and directions of economic
cooperation, encouragement of scientific, educational and cultural
