On Dec. 10 Latvian President Valdis Zatlers and his spouse were hosted by Yerevan Mayor Gagik Beglaryan in Yerevan City Hall.

Zatlers visited Yerevan History Museum and familiarized himself with the history of Armenian capital and left notes in the journal.

In the course of his meeting with Latvian President, Yerevan Mayor emphasized the significant role of relations between the two capitals — Yerevan and Riga. According to Beglaryan, Yerevan seeks to reestablish close relations with Riga. The Mayor underlined the necessity of experience exchange, as Riga has extensive experience in urbanization, city transport, water supply engineering, parking, garbage disposal and landscaping fields.
