Armenian Ambassador Ashot Galoyan today presented his letters of
credence to Estonian President Arnold Ruutel.
Ruutel noted in the meeting that Estonia and Armenia are bound by
continuous cultural ties which have a long history, the president's
office reports. Estonia thinks highly of Armenia's efforts to integrate
into Europe and is ready to share its relevant experience with the
Caucasian country, the president said.
Ruutel also said Estonia appreciates the active South Caucasian policy
of the European Union which provides a more concrete framework for
the neighborhood policy and boosts economic development in that region
as a whole.
According to the president, Estonia is eager to intensify bilateral
economic ties which are rather modest at present.
In Galoyan's words, Armenia sees itself as part of Europe. "I am
certain that Estonia is a strong partner of ours in this," he said.
The ambassador said he aims to raise Armenian-Estonian relations to
a new plane and strengthen bilateral cooperation.
"Armenia is optimistic about the prospects of the future relationship
of our two countries and the Baltic Sea and Black Sea regions,"
he said.
The ambassador resides in the Polish capital Warsaw.
