Armenia’s Ambassador to Syria Tigran Gevorgyan visited the northwestern regions of Syria. In Latakia and Armenan-populated Kessab, the Ambassador held meetings with local self-government and the Armenian community representatives.

The Governor hailed the Armenian community’s contribution to the social-economic development of the province and voiced hope that local Armenians could serve as a bridge between the two countries.
