Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan today received the newly appointed
Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Armenia, Grigory
Tabatadze.
Congratulating the Ambassador on starting his mission in our country,
the Prime Minister expressed confidence that with his activity he
would contribute to the progress in Armenian-Georgian relations.
Tigran Sargsyan attached special importance to promoting the economic
cooperation and underlined the insufficient volume of the current
commodity turnover.
The Armenian Prime Minister noted that the possible reopening of the
"Kazbek-Upper Lars" international automobile checkpoint would have
a positive influence on the further development of regional economy
and would reinforce Georgia’s role as a transit country.
Touching upon the issue of Armenian churches in Georgia, Tigran
Sargsyan emphasized the importance of taking measures to restore the
Saint Gevorg of Mughni Church in Tbilisi.
The parties discussed the activity of the Armenian-Georgian
Intergovernmental Cooperation Commission, which is scheduled to hold
its next sitting in Yerevan at the beginning of 2010.
During the meeting reference was made to the successful conduct of the
Georgian Culture Days in Armenia. The Armenian Prime Minister said
he hopes the Armenian Culture Days will pass with the same success
in Georgia next year
