YEREVAN. – There is a need to build new Russian military bases in Armenia, said President Serzh Sargsyan of Armenia, according to RIA Novosti news agency of Russia.

“I believe there is no need for it, since the working [Russian] military base [in Gyumri] has all the capacity to include all the elements that may be required,” Sargsyan said in an interview with renowned Russian journalist Dmitry Kiselyov. “For that reason, one [Russian military] base in small Armenia, I believe, is enough; simply, military power needs to be transferred to this base.”
