SECRETARY CLINTON: Foreign Minister Nalbandian and I have met many
times and it is once again a delight to welcome him to the State
Department. The United States and Armenia have many connections
and relationships that span politics and go into family and so much
else that is very important to us. And we have many, many important
issues ahead of us, and I look forward to continuing the important
conversation that we've been carrying out.
So welcome, Foreign Minister.
FOREIGN MINISTER NALBANDIAN: Thank you. Thank you very much, Madam
Secretary, for a very warm welcome. I'm very glad to be in Washington
and to meet with you again. The frequency of our meetings proves our
commitment to deepen and to strengthen Armenian-American relations.
Due to our joint efforts, we elevated our relationship to a
qualitatively new level during the last years, and I would like to
thank you very much, Madam Secretary, for your contribution, for your
efforts, for your engagement. I am sure that this meeting will be
another occasion to enhance our friendly partnership between United
States and Armenia. Thank you again.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you very much, my friend. Thank you.
FOREIGN MINISTER NALBANDIAN: Thank you.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you.
