of bilateral relations with Czech Republic and to partnership within
the framework of European structures. Emphasizing the high level of
political relations between the two countries, he meanwhile noted that
economic contacts are still inferior to the political ones and the
commodity circulation is rather small. The sides attached importance
to activization of contacts between the businessmen, exchange of
information, which is needed for finding common verges of cooperation.

Caucasian region and in particular, in Armenia. According to him,

Minister of Foreign Affairs of Czech Republic Karel Schwarzenberg to
Armenia in the respect of further development of cooperation. The
diplomat also said that Czech Republic will assume chairmanship in
EU from January 2009 and wishes to further expand cooperation with

relations with EU's eastern neighbors, the Ambassador said that it
can be a good basis for active cooperation.
