`My long conversation with the First Deputy Prime Minister of Russia
is not strange at all, strange are the comments of it, which
characterize it as `the meeting of two successors,’ Secretary of the
Presidential Council on National security, RA Defense Minister Serge
Sargsyan told journalists.
In the Minister’s words, the framework of responsibilities of the
Russian Deputy Premier are very broad: industry, science, new
technologies, communication, transport, nuclear energy and
others. `It’s not news that I am the Co-Chair of the Armenian-Russian
Intergovernmental Commission, that is to say there are a number of
issues to be solved with both my counterpart Igor Levitin and the
First Deputy Prime Minister of Russia,’ said Serge Sargsyan.
The Minister said they referred also to military cooperation and
`discussed issues which need no comment.’ `I think that in April
Sergey Ivanov will visit Armenia and will give answers to all the
questions you are interested in. I assure that everything is normal,
nothing extraordinary has happened,’ Serge Sargsyan added.
