Hussar participates in the joint visit of the Speakers of Nordic and Baltic parliaments to Armenia

In Hussar’s opinion, the visit of the Speakers of the parliaments of seven countries will provide an opportunity to reaffirm strong support for Armenia’s democratic development and closer relations with the European Union. “At the meetings, we will focus on the global security situation, including the impacts of the war of aggression launched by Russia and support for Ukraine, as well as the achievement of lasting peace and stability in the South Caucasus,” he said.

During the three-day visit to Yerevan, the Nordic and Baltic Speakers will meet with President of Armenia Vahagn Khachaturyan, President of the National Assembly of Armenia Alen Simonyan, Vice President of the National Assembly Hakob Arshakyan, and Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan. They also plan to have a meeting with the Standing Committee on Foreign Relations and the Standing Committee on European Integration of the National Assembly.

On Thursday, the Speakers and Deputy Speakers, together with the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Justice of Armenia, will participate in a panel discussion on peace and democracy, and Armenia`s European integration, where regional security, democratic development and reforms, and further cooperation with the Nordic Countries and the Baltic States and the European Union will be discussed.

The Speakers of the parliaments of Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway and Sweden participate in the visit.
