As invited by Yerevan's city hall, the head governor of New Delhi,
Sheyla Dikshit, arrived in Armenia.
Yerevan's mayor, Yervand Zakharyan, pointed out during a meeting with
journalists that Dikshit had been in Armenia as far back as 2003,
during the meeting of the Armenian and Indian presidents. The purpose
of this meeting was to establish cooperation between the two cities
concerning culture, self-government, health, and science.
"Today trade between the two countries reaches only about 15 million
dollars per year, and we must add to that figure, as everything is
in place to make this happen," Zakharyan stated. As to the fields
where cooperation can be improved, they noted agriculture, science,
and information technologies. Besides that, the Indian side is ready
to assist in the establishment of democratic institutes in Armenia.
A document is being prepared for the two sides to sign, after which
more active steps will be taken to implement the programs. The Indian
governor then invited Yerevan's mayor to India, an invitation she
hopes will not be turned down.
