YEREVAN, OCTOBER 2, ARMENPRESS; Bulgaria’s Prime Minister, Sergey
Stanishev, will pay an official visit to Armenia on November 14-15.
Armenian ambassador to Bulgaria, Sergey Manaserian, told Armenpress
today that during his first visit to Armenia Stanishev will discuss
a set of issues in Yerevan with a focus on refreshing the legal
frameworks between the two countries.
The Armenian ambassador said this necessity has emerged after
Bulgaria’s membership in the European Union. He said 4-5 major
agreements are being elaborated now for the sides to sign in Yerevan.
Bilateral trade last year was about $8 million, however, the ambassador
said there is a huge untapped resource to boost bilateral ties.
Stanishev will be coming with a delegation of Bulgarian businessmen who
will discuss with peers in Armenia ways of expanding bilateral trade.
According to the ambassador, Bulgaria’s defense minister is also
planned to pay a reciprocal visit to Armenia in late November.
