/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The European and Euro-Atlantic orientation of
Bulgaria and Armenia has turned into an important pillar of bilateral
relations," Bulgarian President Georgi Parvanov stated in the course
of a working meeting with his Armenian counterpart Robert Kocharian.
The two Presidents expressed satisfaction with political dialogue
between their countries over the past years. In the course of the
meeting the state leaders exchanged views about opportunities to
activate trade and economic relations, which both felt had not
reached the level of their political dialogue. One of the reasons
for the lack of economic relations, according to the Presidents, was
the lack of a through air service between the Bulgarian and Armenian
capitals. They said they were ready to encourage their respective
executive branches to resolve the issue. Parvanov and Kocharian
discussed the two countries' relations in culture, education and
science. The Bulgarian head of state underscored the need to open
cultural and information centers in Sofia and Yerevan on a reciprocal
basis. It should be reminded that on the invitation of G. Parvanov R.
Kocharian lately paid a 5-day informal visit to Bulgaria.
