YEREVAN. – The work of the 102nd military base with Armenian population is very important,  Russian Ambassador to Armenia Sergey Kopyrkin told reporters on Tuesday. 

Public attention is mainly attracted by tragic incidents related to the base, the ambassador said adding that its systematic activity and work in various areas remain in the shadow.

According to him, the Russian embassy is always interested in the reaction of the Armenian society, as the agreement signed between Russia and Armenia stipulates this base to work with the local population.
