Arayik Harutyunyan, the Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sport of Armenia, issued a message on the occasion of International Students' Day.

"The role of young people, especially students, is very important in shaping a developing society," the message reads, in part. “For our state, it is very important for the educated and highly skilled youth to support and actively participate in the process of state-building.

The key to developing, reforming and succeeding in the field of education is to re-evaluate your knowledge and quality education. All processes we are carrying out in the field are aimed at this very purpose.

Dear young people, be assured that the Ministry is your reliable partner, and together we can jointly find the solution to the issues that seem most difficult.

A strong youth is the strength of our state. Let us be optimistic and full of energy for the good and prosperity of our country.”
