Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on Tuesday sent a congratulatory message to Prime Minister Zoran Zaev of North Macedonia on the latter’s Independence Day anniversary.

The message says, in particular, that Armenia attaches importance to the development of its cooperation with North Macedonia.

Also, Pashinyan expressed the hope that the state relations between the two countries will take on a new quality during Zaev's tenure, and through joint efforts they will be able to intensify their cooperation—and for the benefit of both peoples.
