Sergey Lavrov attendance in the Oct.10 Protocols’ signing ceremony
in Zurich, RA President stressed it speaks of Russia’s pursuit of
peace and security in South Caucasus.
The parties discussed thoroughly the prospects of the economic
relations’ development. Dmitry Medvedev suggested Serzh Sargsyan to
consider the return to pre-crisis turnover rate. "Crisis does not

comforting. We should think of meeting a lack," he outlined. Russian

ties between Armenia and Russia.
