PM Has a Farewell Meeting with the Ambassador of Lithuania in Armenia
Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan received the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Lithuania Giedrius Apuokas, who is completing his diplomatic mission in Armenia. The Head of the Government expressed his gratitude to the Ambassador for his work. “It is obvious that your work has had a serious impact on raising the Lithuanian-Armenian relations to a new level, as well as on strengthening them,” Tigran Sargsyan said.
The two sides highly appreciated the implementation of joint projects in, particularly, military, cultural and educational spheres and expressed confidence that the cooperation will be continuous. At the same time, the parties noted that the Armenian-Lithuanian trade and economic relations are still on an unsatisfactory level, despite the existing potential. Giedrius Apuokas informed that a few Lithuanian companies are interested in cooperation with Armenian partners in the field of information technologies. Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan and the Ambassador expressed hope that this interest will result in additional investments in Armenia.
In conclusion, the Prime Minister wished Giedrius Apuokas success in his further career.
