Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan held a consultation to discuss the government’s anti-crisis programs.

In the context of ensuring food security, a draft of economic measures was discussed aimed at increasing the coverage and productivity of wheat sowing areas. The program will be implemented mediating government subsidies with the involvement of private entities through the offer of high-quality wheat seeds to agriculture. Following the discussion, the Premier tasked those responsible to submit a draft Cabinet decision.

The meeting next discussed issues related to the implementation of anti-crisis measures of economic and social importance. Tools and opportunities for providing additional assistance to the hardest-hit sectors were presented.

Discussions to that effect will be continued and specific proposals will be presented in the near future.
