Armenia`s premier on formula for enhancing independence 

ArmInfo. When we thought about what the formula for increasing the level of independence is, we came to the conclusion that it means replacing dependence on the few with dependence on the many. Now we are acting within the framework of this formula. This was stated by Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in his speech at the Atlantic Council in Washington. He answered questions from John Herbst, Senior Director of the Atlantic  Council's Eurasia Center and former US Ambassador to Uzbekistan and  Ukraine, and then the meeting was held in a closed format, during  which Pashinyan answered questions from experts.

"Of course, we are primarily focused on our regional relations,  because how independent and secure we are, how reliable our security  system is, depends on what kind of relations we have in our region,"  he added, the press service of the head of the Armenian Cabinet  reports.

Pashinyan noted that Yerevan has made great progress in the peace  process with Azerbaijan in recent years.  The draft peace treaty with  Azerbaijan is being discussed, and the parties have already reached  full agreement on 15 points out of 17 of this treaty, with two points  remaining on which final agreement has yet to be reached.

, he said.

Yerevan has a fairly active dialogue with Turkey. In recent years,  Pashinyan has held several meetings with the Turkish president,  . Yerevan hopes to implement this agreement as soon as  possible and is working in this direction.

The RA is also deepening cooperation with other regional partners,  Georgia and Iran. , - Nikol Pashinyan said.
