PASHINYAN RESPONDS TO ERDOGAN
Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan condemned Turkish president Erdogan’s statement on April 24.
He said describing the Armenian Genocide as “Armenian gangs and their supporters” is not just new high in denialism, but justification of nation murder.
“Above all, doing this on April 24 is an ultimate insult to the Armenian people and to humanity, extreme hate speech by Erdogan personally. The world must speak out,” Pashinyan said.
The International Forum on Women’s Entrepreneurship, which Armenia is hosting for the first time, was held Friday in capital city Yerevan.
Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, officials as well as ambassadors of the U.S., UK and France attended the event.
In his speech Armenian PM noted that the majority of Armenia’s population are women and about half of the economically active population also are women. Pashinyan stated that if we do not promote women’s entrepreneurship, economic revolution will hardly succeed in Armenia and urged women to make their step in economic revolution.
RUSSIA RESPECTS SOVEREIGNITY OF EURASIAN PARTNERS
Russia is interested in close cooperation with all Eurasian partners—on the basis of the unshakable principles of respect for the sovereignty, rights, and lawful interests of each and every state, Russian president Vladimir Putin said during Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation in Beijing.
“And it’s with those principles that we [Russia] build the Eurasian Economic Union with our partners Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan.”
He added that the Eurasian Economic Union strives for the broadest collaboration with all interested countries and unions—and, first of all, with China.
DEFENSE MINISTERS ON ARMS SUPPLIES
The deliveries from Russia that should be carried out by the end of the year, during the next year, the arrangements on all of them have been made. Armenian Defense Minister Davit Tonoyan on Friday told this to reporters.
To the remark that Su-30 fighter jets will be deployed at the Russian military airbase in Armenia, too, Tonoyan responded: “The Russian base will be modernized over time, and relevant decisions will be made on the type and quantity of armament.”
As to the observation that during his visit to Armenia, National Security Advisor of the United States John Bolton had remarked that the US can sell arms to Armenia, Toniyan said he had not received any offer.
“The Ministry of Defense is exploring the market from the perspectives of quality, type and prices,” Tonoyan emphasized.
