The California State Senate passed a resolution that establishes a sister-state relationship between the State of California and the Armenian Province of Syunik.

The resolution declares California’s solidarity with Syunik and will facilitate mutually beneficial educational, economic and cultural exchanges.

“Strengthening the relationship with Syunik comes at a critical time as regional powers like Azerbaijan and Turkey pose a threat to its existence and livelihood. This resolution reaffirms California’s solidarity with Armenia and our one million-strong community of California- Armenians,” said Assemblymember Holden.
