YEREVAN. – China is interested in deepening relations with the Armenian colleagues, China’s Procurator General Cao Jianming said Monday, in Armenia’s capital city Yerevan, after the 2012-2013 cooperation program’s signing between the attorney generals of both countries.   

“This year marks the 20th anniversary of diplomatic ties between our countries, and that is why our current visit [to Armenia] has an important significance,” stated Jianming and added: “Our countries were linked to one another through the Great Silk Road, 2,000 years ago.”    

“[And] The relations will further strengthen after signing of the cooperation agreement in the legal domain,” noted China’s Procurator General. 

The aforementioned program envisions the holding of several events, roundtable discussions and seminars, which aim to jointly combat crimes being committed by way of new technologies.
