Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has said that Armenia, as a founding member of the Board of Peace, should make its share of financial contributions to the international body.
Speaking at a press briefing after a Cabinet meeting where a bill on ratifying the Board of Peace Charter was approved, Pashinyan told reporters that it does not envisage financial obligations for the country and is based on a voluntary principle.
“We should contribute to the extent we can. Armenia has no obligations, but I believe we should participate—and we will participate,” the prime minister said.
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan signed the Board of Peace Charter alongside other world leaders in Davos, Switzerland, on January 22.
Pashinyan was invited to sign the charter as a founding member by U.S. President Donald Trump.
The bill on ratifying the Board of Peace Charter will now be sent to parliament.
