Prime Minister of Armenia Karen Karapetyan says it is necessary to revise the remuneration system of public servants in Armenia.
On behalf of President Obama and the American people, I want to extend my congratulations to the people of Armenia as you celebrate the 25th anniversary of your nation’s independence on September 21. The United States deeply values its warm friendship with Armenia and with all of you. In the past quarter century, Armenia has made great progress, and my government looks forward to continuing to work closely with you in support of shared prosperity, strong democratic institutions, the rule of law, and regional peace.
The leading personnel of the Russian military industrial complex have confirmed the delivery of one division of “Iskander” ballistic missile system to Armenia.
During the parade preparation for the 25th anniversary of Armenia’s independence “Iskander M” missile system was demonstrated. Although Defense Ministry doesn’t officially state on having it, Armenian experts assure, that it’s that very type of armament, from which in the whole world has also Armenia after Russia.
“Yerevan has one strategic ally—Russia. The latter aspires full economic and military integration, however, NK has no place in these plans. Armenia has willingly chosen absolute Russian dependency, hoping that it’ll defend NK, receive economic benefit, from which—cheap energy import and serious investments, as well as armaments by cheaper prices.”
On official level Russia will mainly criticize the issue of formation of European armed forces and will repeatedly stone that idea. However, it doesn’t mean that these tendencies actually contradict to Russia’s interests, as direction of Russian foreign policy, as a primary issue before it, also has the issue of enervating the West as much as possible and preventing unity of western countries.
