TURKEY REDOUBLED PATROLLING FRONTIER WITH ARMENIA

The Turkish frontier guards have redoubled vigilance over the border with Armenia, chief of the frontier troops of the Russian Federal Security Service in Armenia, Major General Sergey Bondarev stated in Yerevan today. To remind, according to the Russian-Armenian intergovernmental agreement four Russian frontier detachments are patrolling the Armenian border with Turkey and Iran. In Bondarev’s words, Turkey conducts active works on protection of her frontier points and inhabited localities. Russian frontier guards interact with their Turkish colleagues by exchanging information on the possible illegal crossing of the border, and this produces an effect for frontier patrolling, S. Bondarev noted.
