Pashinyan-Aliyev online meeting not yet planned, FM says
There are no plans for organizing an online meeting of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev yet, Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan told reporters at the National Assembly on Thursday.
The minister said at the moment there is a need to wait for the coronavirus pandemic phase to be over.
“Our goal is to return to regular work as planned in Geneva in late January,” he said.
Separately, Mnatsakanyan said his ministry took swift action in the initial period of the coronavirus spread, sending staff to work from home.
"Initially, the biggest problem was related to the issues of evacuation and return of citizens. Now the transition to normal work is being restored to some extent. The biggest problem for us is to ensure normal work and save resources. So far we have succeeded in doing it. Currently, we have two isolated and a number of self-isolated employees,” he said.
