Pashinyan sends delegation to Tbilisi hit by protests
An Armenian delegation on Thursday paid a two-day visit to unrest-hit Georgia, according to a decision by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
The delegation includes Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sports Zhanna Andreasyan, her deputy Artur Martirosyan, two other ministry officials, YSU Rector Hovhannes Hovhannisyan and the director of Yerevan Basic School No. 51 after Vardges Petrosyan, Lusine Ghasaboghlyan.
The decision was approved on 7 March when protests erupted in Tbilisi after Georgia’s parliament passed the first reading of a controversial draft law that would require Georgian organizations receiving more than 20% of their funding from abroad to register as "foreign agents" or face fines.
The purpose of the visit is to discuss “a number of issues of bilateral cooperation and common interest.”
