Senior Russian, Armenian security officials meet

The secretaries of the Russian and Armenian security councils
discussed regional and international security issues and signed a
cooperation plan for 2010-11 at a meeting.

"The world is changing dynamically, new threats arise, and, of course,
they must be reacted to. Coordination of positions is important,"
Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev said at the
meeting, held in Moscow.

Patrushev said the program for the current visit to Moscow by his
Armenian counterpart, Artur Bagdasarian, included meetings with
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Ivanov, Federal Drug Control
Service head Viktor Ivanov, Border Guard Service head Vladimir
Pronichev, and General Secretary of the Collective Security Treaty
Organization Nikolai Bordyuzha.

"The range of issues that we have discussed are strategic in
character," said Bagdasarian. "We want to strengthen our cooperation
and partnership in every way and continue consultations on security
issues." Bagdasarian described Armenia and Russia as "allies and
strategic partners."
