Xi Jinping expressed his country’s interest in the continued development of multifaceted relations with Armenia. The President of the PRC spoke about the deeply-rooted Armenian-Chinese cultural and historical ties, noting that this was also due to the Silk Road, among other factors.

We were engaged in commercial, humanitarian and political exchanges. It is extremely important for us to maintain constructive and productive relationships with China,” Nikol Pashinyan said.
