Armenia and Georgia are successfully deepening bilateral military ties despite their differing geopolitical orientations, the defense ministers of the two neighboring states said after talks in Yerevan on Monday.
“Armenian-Georgian military cooperation is effectively developing, encompassing peacekeeping, military education, exercises and other areas,” Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian told a joint news conference with his visiting Georgian counterpart, Bacho Akhalaia.
“That cooperation aims to ensure an exchange of experience and form an atmosphere of mutual trust in the peaceful resolution of regional security problems,” he said.
Both ministers insisted that Armenia’s membership in the Russian-led Collective Security Treaty Organization and Georgia’s closer security ties with the West and ambition to join NATO are not an obstacle to that cooperation.
