Today President Serzh Sargsyan received the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic, Karel Schwarzenberg, who arrived to Armenia on official visit, and his delegation.

President Sargsyan said that Armenia attaches great importance not only to the development of bilateral relations with the Czech Republic but also to the relations in multilateral settings and cooperation in the European structures.

Noting that in January 2009 the Czech Republic would assume the chairmanship at the European Union and has a sincere desire to expand relations with the countries involved in the New Neighborhood plan, Karl Schwarzenberg said that he deemed it necessary to visit the region ahead of time and have discussions on the areas of cooperation.

At the request of the high guest the President of Armenia presented in detail the current stage of the Nagorno Karabakh peace process and provided explanation on some of the issues.

The Head of the Czech Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed hope that the parties would be able to bring the fundamental principles of international law together and find a solution which would yield positive results for the people of Nagorno Karabakh. He said that after all the people is the most important part of the problem.
