On October 27, Queen Sofía of Spain arrived in the Republic of Armenia.
She was welcomed at Zvartnots International Airport by Armenia’s Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sport, Zhanna Andreasyan.
The Queen’s visit to Armenia will continue until October 29. During her stay, she will attend the award ceremony for the Prince Talal International Prize for Human Development.
Sofía will also visit Armenia’s historical and cultural sites and take part in cultural events dedicated to the friendly ties between Armenia and Spain.
A key event on Queen Sofía’s itinerary is the award ceremony for the international prize for human development, which also gives the visit significance in terms of international cooperation. Visits to Armenia’s historical and cultural sites and events dedicated to Armenian-Spanish ties provide an opportunity to showcase the country’s cultural heritage and the friendly relations established between the two countries.
The visit will conclude on October 29, meaning that the scheduled events will take place over just a few days. Their significance will depend not only on official meetings but also on how cultural exchanges contribute to the continued development of ties between the two countries.
