Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin today sent a congratulatory message to Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan on the occasion of the coming holidays.

“Dear Mr. Nikol Pashinyan, I cordially congratulate you on the occasion of New Year and Christmas.

During the passing year, the Russian-Armenian relations, which are hinged on friendship, friendly-neighborly ties and strategic partnership, grew simultaneously. The trade-economic and investment cooperation is expanding, and interregional and business relations are being strengthened.

I am certain that the joint efforts of the governments will ensure future progress. We will continue to create favorable conditions for implementation of new prospective projects and integration initiatives within the scope of the Eurasian Economic Union. This is fully in the interests of Russia and Armenia.

Dear Mr. Pashinyan, I wish you, your relatives and close ones health and happiness, and I wish the people of friendly Armenia peace and prosperity,” the congratulatory message of the Prime Minister of Russia reads.
