(ArmInfo) -There is no issue of joining the NATO in the agenda of Armenia's foreign policy, RA FM Vardan Oskanyan said at today's press-conference after an official opening of the NATO Information Center in Yerevan. The official opening of Center was held within the frames of the Week of NATO in Yerevan, having started today.

The Minister reminded that Armenia had started the Individual Partnership Actions Program (IPAP) with NATO a year ago. The Program is rather a solid document and its fulfillment will take much time, the Minister said. In his turn, the NATO deputy Secretary General on Public Diplomacy Jean Fournet, who participated in the Center opening ceremony, noted that the cooperation between Armenia and the Alliance "is being well developed". He reminded that the NATO delegation, having recently visited Armenia, will prepare a report on the course of the Program fulfillment.

The preliminary opinion of the delegation members is positive, J. Fournet added. According to him, the intermediate estimation indicates the mutual strive of the sides to the document fulfillment.
