ROBERT KOCHARYAN LEAVES FOR GEORGIA
The Armenian president Robert Kocharyan is soon visiting Georgia on Mikhail Sahakashvili’s invitation. The speaker of the president of Armenia Victor Soghomonyan announced September 14 that Robert Kocharyan’s one-day visit is friendly. The presidents of Armenia and Georgia will meet in Batumi. Victor Soghomonyan said he is not aware of the details of the agenda of the presidents’ meeting but he thinks the entire specter of bilateral relations will be discussed, including the detention of Armenian citizens at the Georgian border. As to the construction of a penitentiary in Javakheti, perhaps it will not be discussed. Recently Member of Parliament Shirak Torosyan from the Republican faction has voiced concern regarding this penitentiary. He said the penitentiary would turn Javakheti into a place of exile, a criminal territory, and the Armenian government must prevent it. The speaker of the Armenian president said there are penitentiaries in different places in Armenia, such as Artik, Kosh, Sevan, but these areas have not become criminal territories. The president of Armenia does not think the penitentiary is dangerous, and will hardly touch upon this issue in the meeting with Sahakashvili.
In the news conference the speaker of the Armenian president released the schedule of the upcoming visits of the president. In early October Robert Kocharyan will take part in the CIS summit and the summit of the Collective Security Pact Organization in Dushanbe. In Dushanbe Eurasian Economic Community will also hold a summit, and the president of Armenia was invited as an observer since Armenia is an observer country in this organization.
Robert Kocharyan will have a traditional visit to Brussels where he will meet with the leaders of European organizations. The visit will be in mid-October. The president of Armenia was invited to Finland by the president of this country, and Robert Kocharyan will visit Finland in early November. More visits to other countries are expected, as well as visits of other countries’ presidents to Armenia. However, the timing of these visits is not distinct yet. According to Victor Soghomonyan, Mahmud Ahmadinejad, the president of Iran, is expected to visit Armenia this year, but the timing and the agenda of the visit are to be made distinct through the embassies. Victor Soghomonyan said the Armenian and Iranian presidents will probably discuss economic cooperation, as well as other issues.
