ArmInfo. Recent development of political events may lead to arising of
the overland route between Armenia and Bulgaria, Armenian President
Serzh Sargsyan said today at the opening ceremony Armenian-Bulgarian
business-forum in Sophia.
‘Taking into account that the overland distance between Armenia and
Bulgaria is not so big, about 2 thsd km, it will be easy to pass
this distance. This will become the main stimulus for cooperation
development between the two countries’, – Armenian president said. He
also added Armenia thinks the relations with the European Union are
very much important, and has been implementing the work on signing
of Free Trade Treaty, further liberalizing of economy and gradual
holding of the democratic reforms in the republic.
‘We are going to continue this line in future, and we are sure to
succeed’, – Sargsyan said.
The president hopes Armenians of Bulgaria will become a unique bridge
between their historical and new motherland. ‘Our joint plans may be
expressed in two words – we have to work’, – the president concluded.
