President Sargsyan arrived in Rostov-on-Don as part of his
pan-Armenian tour. Sargsyan discussed the Armenia-Turkey normalization
process, as well as the signing of the Armenian-Turkish Protocols with

As regards the view that the Armenia-Turkey reconciliation will cause
damage to the Armenian-Russian strategic cooperation, Serzh Sargsyan
stated: `These views are unfounded, incited by unawareness and are
often presented as a product of analytical thinking.’
`Armenian-Russian strategic cooperation is progressing rapidly,
including the cooperation within the OSCE. You will witness the
developments that will dispel doubts of the ones showing the deepest
distrust,’ Sargsyan said.
