RF President Vladimir Putin has sent a congratulatory message to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on the occasion of the upcoming New Year and Christmas holidays. The congratulatory message reads:

“Dear Nikol Vovayevich,

Please accept my sincere greetings on the occasion of New Year and Christmas holidays.

The outgoing year was not an easy one, but we hope that the challenges it brought along will be left behind. What matters most is that we all made sure that the development of friendly and allied relations between our countries is of paramount importance.

I am confident that the further development of multifaceted Russian-Armenian ties meets the fundamental interests of our two brotherly peoples as it goes in the mainstream of ensuring peace, security and stability in the South Caucasus.

I wish robust health and personal well-being to you, your family and friends, as well as much happiness and prosperity - to all your fellow countrymen.”
