    meeting with the Governor, the RA Ambassador expressed gratitude to
    the authorities of Elblong for assisting the Armenian community's
    initiative to erect a khachkar (cross stone) dedicated to memory of
    the Armenian Genocide victims. Discussing at the meeting possibilities
    of making the Armenian-Polish relations even closer, the Polish side
    proposed to establish an immediate cooperation with one of cities of
    Armenia to establish sister cities. The Elblong Mayor also informed
