The President congratulated the Ambassador on assuming office and

According to Ambassador Bartol, Portugal feels great respect for

friendly country. He conveyed to President Sargsyan the greetings
of his country's President, noting that they are looking forward to

a unique bridge between Armenia and Portugal, and Armenia honors the
humanitarian and cultural activity of the Foundation.
The parties exchanged views on the process of settlement of the

underlined that his country supports the efforts of the OSCE Minsk
Group and the negotiations under way under its aegis.
