MOSCOW

The Government House of Armenia in the capital Yerevan suffered a power outage Thursday during a meeting of Cabinet ministers.

The incident occurred while Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan was speaking.

After the lights went out, he went off topic and asked Infrastructure Minister Gnel Sanosyan why he had been unable to ensure stable electricity supply in Armenia.

“How many more instructions do I need to give? I can't give instructions on the same subject for 10 years, can I?” he said.

Pashinyan noted that even in a government building and in the offices of top officials, the lights are constantly flickering, and no one is surprised by the latest power outage.
