Polish, Swedish diplomats in Armenia for consultations ahead of Riga Summit

On May 11 Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian received Political Directors of the Foreign Ministries of Poland and Sweden Jarosław Bratkiewic and Torbjörn Sohlström, who have arrived in Armenia for political consultations ahead of the Riga Summit.

During the meeting the parties exchanged views on Armenia-EU relations, and the work towards working out new legal bases for them.

The interlocutors discussed issues related to the preparation of the summit.

Minister Nalbandian reiterated Armenia’s approach to develop and deepen the cooperation with the EU in different directions, taking into consideration Armenia’s commitments in other integration frameworks.

Reference was made to a number of regional issues and the ways of their resolution.

Minister Nalbandian briefed the European diplomats on the events dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide taking place in different countries of the world.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
