ArmInfo.  Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan considered it a great honor to attend the opening ceremony of the Belgian Embassy in Yerevan.

According to the Prime Minister, the opening of the diplomatic  mission opens new prospects for the development of relations between  the two countries. Pashinyan pointed to the long-standing historical  ties that underpin relations between Armenia and Belgium. "Today,  they are developing in the light of the strengthening and development  of democracy and the rule of law. It is crucial that democracy brings  prosperity and success to the people, citizens, and the country. And  we are grateful to Belgium for supporting us in achieving all of  these goals. We also greatly appreciate Belgium's support in our  cooperation with the European Union. We know that we have friends in  the European Union on whom we can rely. And this has been proven. We  perceive this as a very bold support for Armenian statehood,  sovereignty, independence, territorial integrity, democracy, and the  aspiration to become a more prosperous, more successful, more  democratic, and more future-oriented country. I am confident that  today's event, your visit, and your personal presence here will  provide another powerful impetus for the further development and  deepening of our bilateral relations," Pashinyan noted, addressing  Belgian Prime Minister Bart de Wever.
