Joe Wilson: By deepening cooperation in security field, we will be  able to ensure Armenia`s resilience in resisting external influences

ArmInfo. It is an honor for us to be in Armenia, which is an important partner for us in the region.  Chairman of the US Helsinki Commission Joe Wilson stated during a visit to Armenia as part of a delegation of US congressmen headed by Senator Roger Wicker.

He noted that during the visit the delegation saw the changing  landscape of the South Caucasus region, challenges, Armenia's steps  in an attempt to get closer to the West, the desire to pursue an  independent foreign policy, and Russia's opposition to restoring the  USSR. "And by deepening cooperation in the security field, we will be  able to ensure Armenia's resilience in resisting external influence.  This will be beneficial not only for the Armenian people, but also  for regional and global security," the head of the Commission  emphasized. At the same time, he called on Azerbaijan to complete the  peace process as soon as possible, as well as Turkiye to also take  steps to regulate Armenian-Azerbaijani relations. "We are ready to  assist Armenia in the humanitarian and economic sectors. We are ready  to help in the formation of a democratic and prosperous society in a  stable and secure region. And we are also working together with  Georgia on these issues," Wilson summarized.
