Eva Dvořáková underlined that her country is concerned about the continuous development of cooperation with Armenia and is interested in the situation in the South Caucasus. She emphasized the continuous development of the democratic processes, underscoring that the Czech Republic holding presidency of the Council of the European Union, is ready to assist Armenia on that way.
