memory of the October 27, 1999 crime victims, after which the private
talk of the RA NA Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan and the NA Speaker of
Lebanon Nabih Berri was held.

official visit to Yerevan was one more evidence of friendship
between the two peoples and of the mutual wish for developing the
cooperation in different spheres, and especially, strengthening the
inter-parliamentary ties between the states. He expressed conviction

official visit paid by the NA Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan to Lebanon
in April 2010, and noted that it transformed a new impetus to the
bilateral relations and had a big positive resonance in Lebanon. "I
should note that our Armenian brothers living in Lebanon, who are
involved in both political and public life, serve as a permanent
bridge in the relations of our two countries," the Head of the Lebanese
Parliament noted.
In the course of the meeting the sides touched upon the regional
problems, the both sides highlighted the cooperation in the
international structures and discussed other issues of bilateral
interest, too.
