YEREVAN, APRIL 8, ARMENPRESS: Parliament speaker Tigran Torosian
received today Serbia's ambassador to Armenia, Liliana Bacevic. The
ambassador has arrived here to attend the April 9 inauguration ceremony
of president-elect Serzh Sarkisian.
The parliament press office quoted Torosian as saying that he as
pleased that the ambassador of the friendly Serbian nation came to
Armenia to participate in an event, which 'is important for Armenia."
Torosian also said that actually very little was done since their
previous meeting in terms of giving a push to bilateral ties. He said
in this sense Armenia expects the 2008 visit to Armenia by Serbian
president to give a serious boost to advancing bilateral relations.
Torosian also referred to Serbia's voting for an Azerbaijani-drafted
resolution at the UN that demanded an immediate pullout of Armenian
troops from regions around Nagorno-Karabakh, saying that was a
'surprise' move from the friendly Serbia.
Torosian also spoke about Kosovo and Nagorno-Karabakh conflicts.
Ambassador Liliana Bacevic who has arrived here for the second time,
was quoted as saying that it is a great honor for her to participate
in the presidential inauguration. She then spoke about the difficulties
her country is going through because of Kosovo.
At the end of the meeting Torosian wished success to the people
of Serbia.
