Yerevan /Mediamax/. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated at the cabinet sitting today that the elections of the president of Armenia will take place in March.
He said 65 deputies of the National Assembly have nominated Vahagn Khachaturyan, Minister of High-Tech Industry, for the post, which he said “gives some confidence that he will be elected to the post.”
