Yerevan, 28 June: The newly-appointed South Korean ambassador to
Armenia, Kim Jae-sup, (resident in Moscow) presented his credentials
to Armenian President Robert Kocharyan today.

Kocharyan congratulated the South Korean ambassador on his
appointment, adding that this would open a new stage in the progress
of Armenian-Korean relations, the presidential press office reported.

The president said that trade between the two countries doubled last
year. However, this figure is not relevant as against the existing
opportunities and therefore, it is necessary to take steps to make
full use of the existing potential.

Stressing the importance of bilateral relations in the economic sphere,
the Korean ambassador said that he intended to do his best for the
expansion of Armenian-Korean relations.
