Armenia–Spain relations refers to the diplomatic relations between Armenia and Spain. The importance of relations centers on the history of Armenians migration to Spain. Approximately 40,000 Armenians and their descendants reside in Spain.[1] Both nations are members of the Council of Europe. HistoryEarly relationsThe first initial contact between Armenia and Spain took place in 1382 when deposed King Leo V from the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia arrived to Spain seeking assistance from Spanish King John I of Castile to regain his kingdom. In Spain, Leo V received the title of Lord of Madrid and stayed in Spain until 1390 when King John I of Castile died.[1] Throughout the centuries, Armenians arrived to Spain escaping war and uncertainties in their home country. Some Armenians partook in the age of exploration for Spain in the late 1400s and early 1500s.[1] During the Armenian Genocide in 1915, most Armenians did not travel Spain, but instead went to either France or former Spanish territories of Argentina and Uruguay. On 26 December 1991, Armenia regained independence after the Dissolution of the Soviet Union. On 27 May 1992, Armenia and Spain established diplomatic relations.[2] Modern relationsSince independence, over 20,000 Armenians have immigrated to Spain.[3] In 2003, Spain opened an honorary consulate in Yerevan. In August 2010, Armenia opened a resident embassy in Madrid.[4] In recent years, five Spanish provinces have recognized the Armenian genocide (Aragon, Balearic Islands, Basque Country, Catalonia and Navarre).[5] In 2010, a memorial was erected in Mislata, Valencia, the first monument commemorating the Armenian genocide in Spain.[6] State visitsGovernmental visits from Armenia to Spain[2][4]
