Director of Information and PR Center of Armenian President’s
Administration, Ara Saghatelyan, presented activities and functions
of the Center he leads.

"We have developed effective system to provide information support of
state policy of Armenia," he said pointing in particular activities
in social network systems and establishment of common platform for
staff, responsible for Public Relations.

"Earlier we used to point that some PR departments and staff do not
work or work poorly. Meanwhile now we have a closed group focused on
specific tasks and you can now see how in a timely way they respond,
or how they plan activities and all, and you can learn whether any
positive changes appear," he said.

Ara Saghatelyan told that there is a list of all scheduled conferences
providing effectiveness of their working. Communication between staff
and partners developed keeping information support of state policy of
Armenia. Through these works, communications and activities for about
1,300 anti-Armenian videos were removed from YouTube. Information and
PR Center of Armenian President’s Administration monitors anti-Armenian
activities and doings: "We focus on that stuff, and we prevent them,"
he said stressing that Center does not replace the functions of any
official body.

"When any official structure is in need of consultation, we provide
conditions and solving," he added.
