diplomatic relations.
The China-Armenia relationship has maintained a sound and smooth

anniversary as an opportunity to further consolidate the foundation
for bilateral cooperation, strengthen political exchanges, and promote
pragmatic cooperation so as to further step up bilateral ties.

joint efforts of the two countries over the past two decades,
bilateral cooperation has been constantly increased in politics,
trade, industry, technology, defense, culture, education and sports.
Developing a friendly partnership with China has always been one of
Armenia's diplomatic priorities, said Sargsyan, adding that his
country speaks highly of China's principled stance in safeguarding
world peace.
