On March 23 Speaker of RA National Assembly Tigran Torosyan received
the newly appointed Ambassador of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam
to Armenia Bui Dihn Zihn.
Greeting the Ambassador, the Armenian Parliament Speaker noted that
although the relations with Vietnam were established after Armenia's
independence, the trade and economic relations are not well developed
and expressed hope that the Ambassador's activity will promote the
development of interstate relations in all directions. Mr. Torosyan
stressed the importance of establishment of interparliamentary ties,
noting that the parliamentarians of the two countries are cooperating
with each other within international organizations and it will enhance
the development of bilateral ties. As a first step on the way of
establishment of interparliamentary ties, Tigran Torosyan proposed
creating Deputy Friendship Groups in both Parliaments.
Turning to the role of Vietnam in Southeastern Asia, the Speaker noted
that although having proclaimed European integration as a priority
direction of its foreign policy, Armenia pays great attention to the
development of friendly ties with countries of the Asian region.
The Ambassador of Vietnam expressed the friendly attitude of his state
and people toward Armenia and the Armenian people, noting that his
country highly appreciates the support of the Armenian people in the
liberation movement in Vietnam and is grateful for that. According to
his assessment, Armenia is really a stably developing friendly country
for Vietnam, and the economic growth registered in both states opens
great opportunities and perspectives for cooperation.
The parties stressed the importance of working out and implementing
certain programs of cooperation. The Ambassador assured that his
mission will be aimed at the development of interstate relations,
and the Armenian Parliament Speaker expressed willingness to support
his activity.
