Resident of Kalavan village Robert Ghukasyan, who has received an offer from Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan to become his advisor, has posted the following on his Facebook page:

“It is very hard to talk about everything that happened yesterday.

I could have imagined the Prime Minister visiting Kalavan, and frankly, I was expecting it, but I wasn’t expecting the Prime Minister to respond to the concept of the development of Kalavan village the way he did. He had a sense of everything (and this is what was shocking for me), and I got the impression that he shared the idea of the development of Kalavan village.

It is a great honor for me to receive such an offer from the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia. It will provide me with the opportunity to share the experience of Kalavan with other settlements across Armenia.

The work that I have put in over the past 7 years was appreciated at the highest level.

I would like to thank Mr. Nikol Pashinyan for his great trust in me. It is very binding. I am fully aware of the responsibility I have for my nation and the Prime Minister.

Of course, the positive feedback from the public encourages me and gives me a lot of energy.

I am more than grateful."
