Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan today held personal talks with President of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) Arayik Haroutyunyan.
“Distinguished President of Artsakh, it is my pleasure to meet with you in Yerevan on the day marking the 29th anniversary of the Independence of Armenia. The declaration of independence has a special place in Armenian history, and I believe it is unequivocal for us Armenians that only through the existence of statehood will we be able to guarantee the development of our nation. Of course, Artsakh is currently the major issue on the pan-national agenda, and I am glad that, as in the past, we will combine our efforts to play the role of a guarantor of peace and stability in the region today and in the future,” Pashinyan stated.
“Thank you distinguished Prime Minister. Taking the opportunity, I would like to congratulate all us Armenians. I am certain and can surely say that the future of Armenia and Artsakh is not only guaranteed, but we will also have dynamic growth. Taking the opportunity, I would also like to thank you for our subsequent meeting. During our meetings, the focus of our discussions is our national security and the several socio-economic programs in Armenia and Artsakh, but we understand that today, in this difficult period in politics, it is our duty to do our best to ensure sustainable peace,” Harutyounyan said.
The Prime Minister and President discussed several issues related to the development of cooperation.
