Armenia is definitely a European country. It has a lot of human capital and a lot of potential where we can work closely together with Europe and, of course, with Sweden as well. Charge d’affaires of Sweden in Armenia Marten Ehnberg told the aforementioned to Armenian News – NEWS.am, referring to the significance of Armenia for Europe.
According to him, Armenia has a very particular geographic location. “It is between a lot of interesting countries that are of interest for Europe. But Armenia also has a lot of interesting things in itself,” Ehnberg said.
In his words, Sweden already has a lot of positive cooperation with Armenia “We have approximately 12,000 people of Armenian descent living in Sweden. They provide a very valuable input to Swedish society. We also have very good political relations between Sweden and Armenia, a lot of visits on high level. So, Armenia is important for many reasons, but it has a huge potential which we still haven’t quite tapped into, and the Framework Agreement is going to help to do this,” the diplomat said.
