YEREVAN, MAY 25, ARMENPRESS. President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan received Vice-President of the German Bundestag Edelgard Bulmahn on May 25. Serzh Sargsyan greeted the guest and told that he cordially recalls his visit to Germany and the meetings held with the leadership of the country in an atmosphere of mutual understanding, during which the agenda of Armenian-German relations and prospects for development of partnership were discussed. From the perspective of strengthening bilateral ties, Serzh Sargsyan highlighted the necessity of high-level mutual visits, including the current visit of the Vice President of the German Bundestag Mrs. Bulmahn, and stated the role of inter-parliamentary relations for the development of interstate relations.

As “Armenpress” was informed from the press service of Republic of Armenia President’s Office, the senior German official mentioned that the German Bundestag attaches great importance to reinforcing parliamentary ties with Armenia and development of partnership. Referring to Armenian President’s visit to Germany, Mrs. Bulmahn stated that it caused a huge resonance in her country and that the talks between the Armenian President and the German leadership were rather effective, giving new impetus to Armenian-German relations.

The international process of Armenian Genocide recognition was touched upon at the meeting, particularly, the upcoming discussion of the Armenian genocide at the Bundestag and the relevant resolution, the adoption of which, in the words of the President, will show that Germany, as the then ally of the Ottoman Empire, can once again look back at its past in a straightforward and unequivocal manner and take some lessons from it.
