Since 1998, when our countries established diplomatic relations, our ties have experienced continuous development, as evidenced by the nearly thirty agreements we highly value, as well as the high-level reciprocal visits aimed at strengthening our relations.

For Armenia, cooperation with the United Arab Emirates holds special significance.”

The sides emphasized the importance of multilateral contacts and cooperation, highlighting the advancement of parliamentary diplomacy through the framework of cooperation between the friendship groups of the two countries’ parliaments.

The promotion of mutual visits at different levels was stressed, as such interactions contribute to the expansion of cooperation.

Both sides underlined the importance of establishing peace in the region. In this context, the President of the Republic noted that Armenia has a clear stance on building relations with its neighbors based on the principles of good neighborliness and peaceful coexistence.
