ArmInfo.The development of relations with the Diaspora will be one of the priorities in the activities of the Armenian government over the next five years. On February 12, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan said this from the rostrum of the National Assembly, speaking about the structure of the RA government.
According to him, there is a huge amount of work to be done, since each diaspora organization has serious problems. It is important in this context to unite the potential of the Diaspora in order to solve national problems. This work, as Nikol Pashinyan noted, will be coordinated by a special commissioner under the head of the government. "It is very important to form a platform on which all pressing problems will be discussed," Nikol Pashinyan stressed.
