RBC, 25.08.2008, Yerevan 15:09:55.Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan
believes that Russian military bases in the republic symbolize
efficient cooperation between the two countries, rather then hegemony,
the ARKA information agency reported today.

Sargsyan pointed out that Armenia stood on principle of sovereignty,
adding that at the moment such sovereignty included participation
in efficient international and regional security systems. He also
reiterated that one of the main principles of the Collective Security
Treaty Organization (CSTO), which Armenia had made a decision to join,
was that an attack on one of its members meant an infringement on
all members.
