Bulgaria Sergey Stanishev was received by National Assembly Speaker
Tigran Torosyan, Vice-Speaker Arevik Petrosyan, chairmen of standing
committees, head of the Armenia-Bulgaria Deputy Friendship Group
Manvel Badeyan.teh meeting was attended by the Ambassadors of the
two countries - Stefan Dimitrov and Sergey Manasaryan, RA Minister
of Transport and Communication Andranik Manukyan.
Stressing the centuries-old friendship between the two peoples,
NA Speaker Tigran Torosyan said the current visit can become an
important impetus for the development of relations. After the collapse
of the USSR and establishment of independence the relations of the two
countries have been consistently developing in all directions, there
has been cooperation within international organizations. Nevertheless,
according to Mr. Torosyan, although the commodity turnover increased
over the past year, there is still an unused potential that opens new
perspectives for the development of mutually beneficial cooperation.
Bulgarian Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev noted that governments and
parliaments change, but the atmosphere of friendship and cooperation
remains. Noting that many Armenians live in Bulgaria, Mr. Stanishev
said they are best integrated in the political and economic life of
the country.
Presenting Bulgaria's experience of NATO and EU membership, Sergey
Stanishev noted that the Parlaiment worked without days off, adopting
only 120 lawn on the issue. A hard and effective work was done to
bring the state governance system in line with European standards. He
said a great experience has been accumulated, which Bulgaria is ready
to share with Armenia.
Valuing the establishment of an atmosphere of peace and cooperation
in the region, Mr. Stanishev noted that Bulgaria understands the
complexity of solving the Karabakh issue and knows that it's an
open wound for Armenia and Azerbaijan. But no matter how hard the
negotiations are, the experience of the Balkans evidences that
it's better to negotiate 365 days a year, than be in war for one
day. Being an OSCE presiding county in 2004 and participating in
the Prague process, Bulgaria sees the solution in a peaceful way and
contributes to the activity of the OSCE Minsk Group to this end.
