Acting Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan congratulated Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin on the occasion of country’s state holiday—Russia Day.

“Underpinned by the two nations’ centuries-old friendship and fraternal ties, the Armenian-Russian alliance is invariably manifested both at the bilateral level and as part of international, regional and integration associations.

I am convinced that the joint efforts will henceforth be focused on expanding the entire range of interstate relations to promote the development of our countries and ensure regional stability and security,” Pashinyan’s message reads in part.
