Acting Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan sent a congratulatory message to Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium Alexander De Croo on Belgian National Day. The congratulatory message reads, in part:

“Excellency,

I cordially congratulate you and the friendly people of Belgium on the occasion of Belgian National Day.

I highly value the Armenian-Belgian interstate relations, which are based on our two peoples’ traditional friendship and the achievements in different spheres of cooperation.

I am convinced that our joint efforts will help develop the ongoing cooperation between Armenia and Belgium, expand it in both bilateral and multilateral dimensions, including as part of the EU-Armenia Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement and the Eastern Partnership.

I would like to avail myself of this opportunity to thank you for the sincere and constructive talks we had during our June meeting in Brussels. It is my pleasure to reaffirm the invitation to visit Armenia at your convenience.

I wish you good health and all the best, as well as continued progress and prosperity to your country.”
