I didn’t want to speak at the hall after the Maestro, but I must clarify that that Royale [piano] was not presented to him by me, but by the people of Armenia because it was obtained through the means of the Republic of Armenia state budget—the Prime Minister’s Fund. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan wrote this on his Facebook page.

Also, he posted a video in which renowned Armenian composer Tigran Mansurian thanked him for the Royale piano that was given to him as a gift on his 80th birthday.

The last capital city Yerevan concert of the “Mansurian 80” anniversary concert series was held on Friday.

Prime Minister Pashinyan also attended this anniversary evening—and together with his daughters.
