Minister for Foreign Affairs Giulio Terzi held a long and amiable
meeting with Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian during which
they confirmed their mutual support the strengthening of bilateral
political and economic relations, not least in light of the increased
trade recorded over the past year. Minister Terzi underscored that
Italy placed political dialogue with Jerevan within the context
of Armenia's gradual European Union integration and, to that end,
assured Italy's support for an Association Agreement.
The two ministers also addressed the main regional issues concerning
the Caucasus and relations with Iran. Regarding the former, Minister
Terzi expressed Italy's support for the Minsk Group's efforts in OSCE
negotiations with Azerbaijan.
Finally, Terzi and Nalbandian underscored the importance of cultural
relations between Rome and Jerevan, which are especially intense during
the present period. Tomorrow Armenian President Sargsyan will open the
exhibition "Impressioni d'Armenia" in Venice, in celebration 500th
anniversary of the first book printed in Armenian 500 in that city,
while 2012 has been declared the Year of the Armenian Book in Italy.
