The commander-in-chief of Russia's ground forces, Colonel-General Vladimir Chirkin, has visited Armenia to meet with the country's top military officials and inspect Russian troops deployed there.
The Armenian Defense Ministry said on Friday that Chirkin held talks with Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian and the chief of the Armenian army's General Staff, Colonel-General Yuri Khachaturov, during the three-day visit that ended on Thursday.
A ministry statement said they discussed "a wide range of issues" related to the Russian military base in Armenia and broader Russian-Armenian military cooperation. It said Chirkin arrived in Armenia to inspect the base and help its commanders prepare for "a new academic year."
