parliamentary group of the Federal Assembly of the Swiss Confederation
headed by Co-Chairs Welly Loyenberger and Dominique de Buman.
Greeting the Swiss counterparts, Hovik Abrahamyan expressed
confidence that their visit will contribute to the development of
interparliamentary ties between the two countries, which will, in turn,
have a positive influence on the development of interstate ties in the
trade-economic, scientific-cultural, healthcare and other spheres. On
behalf of the National Assembly, Mr. Abrahamyan expressed gratitude
to the Swiss Deputies for their active support to the adoption of
the resolution on recognition of the Armenian Genocide.
Co-Chair of the Switzerland-Armenian parliamentary group of the Federal
Assembly of the Swiss Confederation Dominique de Buman assessed the
meeting as symbolic, noting that the parliament plays a great role
in democratic states as generator of ideas. On behalf of all members
of the delegation he congratulated Hovik Abrahamyan on being elected
to the post of President of the National Assembly. Turning to the
resolution on recognition of the Armenian Genocide, Mr. Buman reminded
that it was initiated by jean Clod Verdi, and after the death of the
latter he assumed the continuation of the process of presentation
and adoption of the bill.
At the request of the Swiss Deputies, Hovik Abrahamyan informed them
about the activity of the National Assembly, the state governance
system and domestic issues.
