Ara Khzmalyan mentioned the Armenian-Iranian scientific conference scheduled for March and the events dedicated to the 130th anniversary of Andre Sevrugian, which will take place later in the year.

Ambassador Mehdi Sobhani expressed his willingness to provide all-round support and invited the directorate of Matenadaran to the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Republic of Armenia.
