YEREVAN, APRIL 19, ARMENPRESS. Within the framework of the official visit to the Republic of Lithuania, the President of the Republic of Armenia, Vahagn Khachaturyan, along with his counterpart Gitanas Nausėda, participated in the official opening ceremony of the Armenian-Lithuanian business forum, during which the presidents made opening speeches.

ARMENPRESS reports President Vahagn Khachaturyan welcomed all the participants of the Armenian-Lithuanian business forum, expressing gratitude to the Lithuanian side for their support in organizing the event.

“The interest shown by the representatives of various business circles in the forum is really encouraging. At the same time, I must admit that the interest of the Armenian side in participating in the forum was much greater. I am committed to provide all the necessary steps to hold the next business forum in Armenia. As an economist and politician, I would like to note that economy is tight politics, while tight economy is successful business. Therefore, the success of the business is the evidence of the success of both the economy and politics,” he said.

The President emphasized that, guided by that logic, from the beginning of the planning of his visit, he wanted to include a business component in the visit, and he is happy that they succeeded in this.

“Greeting all of you once again, I urge you to take this opportunity to identify, consolidate and implement your interest in businesses that are important for both countries and make the best use of this platform kindly provided by the Lithuanian authorities.

 I will end my speech with the note that business is not about long-winded speeches, but about actions and results, so I wish you all a fruitful event and assure you that I am ready to support all your ideas and initiatives,” concluded Vahagn Khachaturyan.

At the start of the business forum, in the presence of Presidents Vahagn Khachaturyan and Gitanas Nausėda, the Ministers of High-Tech Industry of Armenia and Lithuania signed a cooperation and mutual understanding agreement. Agreements and memorandums were also signed between Armenian and Lithuanian businessmen participating in the conference.

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
