Speaker of the Armenian Parliament Hovik Abrahamyan held a number of
meetings in Aleppo and Damascus, Nov. 24.
The press service of the RA Parliament informed NEWS.am that Speaker
Abrahamyan held a meeting with Syrian Prime Minister Muhammad Naji
al-Otari. The Syrian Premier briefed Speaker Abrahamyan on the
latest economic achievements, pointing out the need for intensifying
Armenian-Syrian economic cooperation.
The Armenian delegation also visited Aleppo, where they held a
meeting with the local authorities, particularly with Governor Ali
Ahmad Mansoura.
The Armenian delegation also attended the opening ceremony of an
exhibition of Armenian products. "Immediately after Armenia gained
independence, Syria and particularly Aleppo became ones of the priority
markets for us. The current trade turnover, U.S. $4 million, is far
from our real potential, which needs to be realized," Abrahamyan said.
The Armenian delegation also visited the local patriarchate of the
Armenian Apostolic Church and held a meeting with representatives of
the Armenian community. On November 25 Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan is
to visit Deir ez Zor. On Nov. 25 evening the Armenian delegation is
to return to Yerevan.
