Armenia: Military Alliances

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what recent discussions he has had with his Armenian counterparts on strategic defence cooperation with that country.

Answered by Luke Pollard

The Secretary of State has not yet had personal discussions with his Armenian counterparts, but we do have good and growing engagement in the region, including Staff Talks in Yerevan shortly and the announcement of a resident Defence Section, due to open in Armenia later in the year. We are currently exploring the possibility of Ministerial bi-lateral engagement later in the year.
