Antonios Vlavianos said that development of villages in Armenia will
prevent the local residents from leaving their villages and moving to
Yerevan. As regards other programs aiming development of the country's
regions, Ambassador said that a new sanatorium is planned to be
constructed in the resort town of Dilijan, however, the Greek diplomat
expressed hope that this program's implementation will be started next
year. Besides, the Greek party implement other contribution programs
in Armenia, including a program aimed at bringing the Armenian
Parliament in conformity with European standards. For this purpose,
various seminars are organized in Greece. Ambassador Vlavianos pointed
out the cooperation between Armenia and Greece. Due to it, many
Armenian officers are educated in Greece. He added that the programs
implemented in Armenia are aimed at establishment of peace and
security in the South Caucasus. Greece, as part of the EU, considers
these three states as single and wants development of the region and
establishment of cooperation between the states. He pointed out that
Armenia exerts efforts to establish this cooperation, unfortunately,
it receives no response from other states of the region. Antonios
Vlavianos added that this fact must not make Armenia
dissapointed. Official Yerevan must further make steps in this
direction, as investments in the region are possible only in case of
peace in the South Caucasus.
