12:59 ~U 31.05.13
Speaker of National Assembly of Kuwait Ali Al-Rashid met today with
the professor staff and students of the Yerevan State University.
Addressing the present, the YSU rector Aram Simonyan said that it is
a great honor for him to host the National Assembly speaker of Kuwait
in the University. He voiced hope that the visit of Ali Al-Rashid
will promote the further development of the relations between the
two countries.
"It will afford an opportunity to exchange viewpoints, exchange ideas.
There is a necessity to undertake new steps in the relations between
the two countries," he said.
Simonyan reminded that still in 2009 the Armenian government and
Kuwait signed an agreement in education sphere which the YSU rector
said is an important step regarding the promotion of education.
Aram Simonyan noted that he was in the University of Kuwait and
hosted delegations from there in the YSU. He said Islam Center will
be established in the YSU.
Kuwaiti parliament speaker said the main goal of the visit to Armenia
is to find out what investments Kuwait can make in Armenia. He said
that though Kuwait is a very small country with a small population,
it is the most democratic one and free and transparent elections are
being conducted there.
"The developments in our region are called 'Arab Spring' and we can
really say that a real spring is in our region for the last 50 years.
As to the investments, in our opinion it will reinforce more
the friendship between our countries. We also highly rate the
implementation of direct flights from Armenia to Kuwait," he said.
The Kuwaiti parliament speaker also said that the Kuwaiti investments
in different countries are profitable for their countries which became
obvious when Iraq occupied Kuwait. "When Iraq occupied our country we
did not stop paying salaries to people. It was on the account of the
investments made in foreign country. We understood its significance
when they occupied our country," he said, stressing that the joint
interests reinforce the relations between the two countries.
