“I am sure that during your presidency, Armenia-U.S. relations will be further strengthened, and we will continue to record new achievements, realizing our vision of reaching the level of strategic partnership,” Pashinian said in the message, as quoted by his press office.
He noted the “unprecedented progress” made in recent years in Armenia-U.S. relations, which, he emphasized, are “anchored in the historical friendship, common values, and mutual interests of our countries.”
The prime minister also highlighted the role of the American-Armenian community in strengthening ties.
“I highly appreciate the effective cooperation between our countries in establishing peace and stability in the South Caucasus based on the fundamental principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity, strengthening democratic institutions in Armenia, protecting human rights and ensuring the rule of law, fighting corruption, and preventing security threats,” Pashinian said.
“The development of cooperation in trade, economic and investment spheres, as well as the full use of the existing considerable potential have a special place in our multi-layered agenda. In this regard, I am happy to note the joint efforts aimed at promoting Armenia’s economic and energy resilience,” he added.
The Armenian premier also expressed hope for new opportunities in Armenia-U.S. relations if “lasting and sustainable peace” is established in the South Caucasus and “regional economic and communication channels” are unblocked. He underscored that the Armenian government’s proposals in that regard are summarized in the “Crossroads of Peace” project.
