Armenian President Serzh Sargsian will visit Syria on March 22nd
23rd in response to an invitation from President Bashar al-Assad,
Armenian Ambassador to Damascus Arshak Poladyan said on Wednesday.
"During the visit several agreements will be signed in numerous
fields," the Ambassador told a press conference.
"We have direct political dialogue with Syria on all levels and Syria
has expressed, in many occasions, her readiness to help normalizing
relations between Armenia and Turkey and Azerbaijan", the Armenian
Ambassador said.
Poladyan added that President Sargsian's first visit to Syria is
historical and plays an important role in deepening the good relations
between Syria and Armenia, describing his country's relations with
the Arab countries, particularly with Syria as "historical and
traditional".
He pointed out that the historical Syrian-Armenian relations are a
good opportunity for developing the political, economic and cultural
relations between the two countries. Following its independence,
Armenia opened an embassy in Damascus and a consulate in Aleppo and
an honorary consulate in Deir-Ezzor a few days ago, which reflects
its desire to develop good relations with Syria.
He indicated that on the sidelines of the visit, a Syrian-Armenian
joint cultural show will be performed at al-Assad House for Culture
and Art. The 2-day show includes Spartacus Ballet for the artist and
composer Aram Khachaturian organized in cooperation with the Syrian
National Symphony .
