On September 26 RA NA Speaker Tigran Torosyan received Mrs. Panayota
Mavromikhali, the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of
Greece, on the completion of the latter’s tenure of office.

The Ambassador thanked the NA Speaker for the two-year productive
and interesting work. According to Mrs. Panayota Mavromikhali
a Deputy Friendship Group will be established with the Armenian
National Assembly in the newly elected Greek Parliament and the next
Ambassador will have the opportunity to deepen the interparliamentary
relations, which, according to her, have always been on a high
level. Mrs. Mavromikhali assured that she will always remain a friend
of Armenia.

Turning to interparliamentary relations, Mr. Torosyan noted that by
the turn of the year the Deputy Friendship Groups will be formed in
both Parliaments and the frameworks of cooperation will be determined.

The NA Speaker noted that the agreements reached as a result of
negotiations between the Presidents of the two countries have opened
new opportunities for broadening the bilateral relations in the
future and these opportunities create new perspectives, since the
two countries have not only political and historical similarities,
but also common interests.

The interlocutors attached importance to reciprocal visits as an
important factor for development of relations.
