President of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) Arayik Haroutyunyan posted on his Facebook page information about his meeting with newly appointed Secretary of the Security Council and shared a video of the meeting.

“A short while ago, I had a meeting with newly appointed Secretary of the Security Council of Artsakh Samvel Babayan.

We discussed several major issues facing the country and attached importance to the fact that we need to combine efforts and try to implement the memorandum signed by our political parties,” he wrote.

During the meeting, Haroutyunyan reminded that the second point in the decree on appointing Samvel Babayan states that the latter needs to submit recommendations on the new statute and structure of the Security Council of Artsakh within a one-month period. “I believe the Security Council has to play a larger role. The Security Council must become one of the country’s major platforms for discussions on all the issues that are a matter of concern for our people and country,” Haroutyunyan said.

In his turn, Babayan expressed gratitude for the trust and promised that his political party will do everything it can to make sure the memorandum is implemented.
