/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia backs peaceful negotiation process over
Iran’s nuclear program, NSC Secretary Arthur Baghdasaryan said during
an interview with German Spiegel Online periodical. Western countries,
according to him, seek resolution in negotiations vs. conflicts. "We
want to maintain good and friendly relations with Iran," he noted.

In response to the question whether Armenia may face the threat of
isolation as Russia’s only ally in the region, Arthur Baghdasaryan
ruled out such possibility. "We cooperate with NATO, and that is
one of the elements of our security policy. Russia has been our
strategic partner since gaining independence. We are one of CSTO
founding members. However, integration to European structures is a
priority for us," Mr. Baghdasaryan said.
