Former Foreign Minister of the Republic of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh Republic/NKR), Karen Mirzoyan, was appointed Adviser to the Foreign Minister of Armenia.

Although his appointment was in early January, this information is reported by the media only now.

Mirzoyan was dismissed from the post of Artsakh FM in September 2017, when the new government was being formed. At that time Masis Mayilian was appointed NKR FM.
