Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on Friday congratulated Irakli Kobakhidze on his confirmation as Georgia's new Prime Minister by the country’s Parliament.
In a social media message, Pashinyan said he hoped to see a further development of strategic partnership between the countries.
“Heartfelt congratulations to the newly appointed Prime Minister of Georgia Irakli Kobakhidze! Looking forward to further enhancing Armenian-Georgian strategic partnership, built on centuries-old friendship, shared values and democratic ideals of our peoples”, the official said.
The Georgian Parliament on Thursday approved Kobakhidze, the former Chair of the ruling Georgian Dream party, as the head of the Government with 84 votes in favour and 10 against, after the vote was triggered by the resignation of Irakli Garibashvili in late January.
