It is extremely gratifying to witness such progress on such a significant matter.<br>&nbsp;<br>\u201cBy opening an embassy in Armenia, Canada is sending the right message to both Armenia and the international community that Ottawa is committed to standing with countries that are struggling to strengthen their democratic progress and establish themselves as viable partners to the rest of the global&nbsp;community.<br>&nbsp;<br>\u201cArmenia is indeed an extremely fragile democracy with challenges that continue to threaten its stability and sovereignty, not the least of which is the ongoing conflict in Artsakh, fueled by Azerbaijan\u2019s Turkish-backed aggression. To this effect, Canada\u2019s presence will help strengthen Armenia\u2019s democratic exposure and allow Canada to engage more meaningfully on issues that are most important.<br>&nbsp;<br>\u201cFurthermore, we are convinced that a Canadian embassy in Armenia will help facilitate the swift implementation of the many important recommendations made by Ambassador Stephane Dion as part of his mission to support Armenian democracy.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>\u201cWe thank the Government for its decision to finally establish an embassy in Armenia. We remain committed to continuing our advocacy to ensure that the views and opinions of the Armenian-Canadian community are well-represented as we continue working with the Government of Canada on the next steps of this important initiative.\u201d<br><em><strong>OTTAWA \u2013 June 29, 2022<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThe Armenian National Committee of Canada welcomes&nbsp;Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Hon.
