On November 27, the RA NA Vice President Eduard Sharmazanov met with the Chairman of the Legislative Assembly of Saint Petersburg Vyacheslav Makarov in Mariinskiy Palace of Saint Petersburg.

During the meeting the sides highlighted the Armenian-Russian ally relations and expressed readiness to take part in the further strengthening of the bilateral ties.

“The Armenian-Russian relations develop in all directions, and they are genuinely of ally character,” Mr Sharmazanov underlined.

The RA NA Vice President thanked Vyacheslav Makaraov for supporting in the organization of the memory events dedicated to the 130^th death anniversary of the well-acclaimed Armenian Mikayel Loris Melikov, noting that this is one more occasion for stressing the significant and weighty contribution of the Armenians to the public-political and cultural life of Russia and particularly Saint Petersburg.
