Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš has congratulated Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on his electoral victory.

The letter from PM Babiš was published by Pashinyan’s office.

“Dear Prime Minister, allow me, on behalf of myself and the Czech Republic, to sincerely congratulate you on your victory in the recent parliamentary elections. The results of these elections clearly demonstrate the trust that the citizens of your country have in you. I warmly recall our meeting in Yerevan this May and am pleased that the Republic of Armenia hosted the European Political Community summit, which can be considered successful and was accompanied by a positive international response.

I am confident that, under your leadership, the Republic of Armenia will successfully overcome existing challenges, continue to prosper, and maintain its pro-Western orientation.

Relations between our countries have traditionally been friendly, based on shared values, mutual respect, and close cooperation in a number of areas, particularly trade, transport, and the defense industry. I greatly value this partnership and look forward to our future personal cooperation both bilaterally and within international organizations.

I wish you success, good health, and great strength in carrying out your demanding and responsible duties.”
