The Zhoghovurd newspaper of the Republic of Armenia RA writes as follows, in particular: Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan attended the opening ceremony of the second [Armenian] National Youth Forum on August 5 at the Gabriel Sundukyan National Academic Theater [in Yerevan].

The forum was organized by the RA Prime Minister's Office together with Outsource LLC, which had organized the first National Youth Forum 2 years ago.

From the documents available in the Armeps electronic procurement system, the Zhoghovurd daily learned that 234 million drams, almost 610 thousand US dollars, were allocated for the forum.

(…).

If the public was surprised by the 37 thousand dollars envisioned for Jennifer Lopez’s food [within the framework of her recent concert in Yerevan], let us note that the [Armenian] Government has allocated 34.7 million drams for the food of the 3-day event.
