Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan on Monday met with the Executive Secretary of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO), Robert Floyd,  in Vienna.

Both sides emphasized the role of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) in non-proliferation and nuclear disarmament, the Ministry of Foreign Affair of Armenia informs Armenian News-NEWS.am.

Armenia, as a supporter of non-proliferation, is committed to its commitment to the CTBT, and also values the continuity and increased visibility of the effective cooperation formed with the CTBTO to date, Mirzoyan noted.

The interlocutors discussed Armenia's cooperation with the CTBTO, particularly in the context of capacity development projects.

The current challenges, as well as regional issues, also were discussed at the meeting.

Armenia signed the CTBT on October 1, 1996 and ratified it on July 12, 2006.
