YEREVAN, AUGUST 30, ARMENPRESS. The medalists of “Kangaroo” mathematics contest, “Meghu” contest of the Armenian language and “Russian bear” contest of the Russian language, as well as the medal winners at international Olympiads and gold medal graduates of educational institutions were awarded by PM Pashinyan at the Presidential Residency. ARMENPRESS reports the students were awarded by medals, certificates and other prizes.  

“In today’s Armenia and for our Government education is a key priority. We highlight education so much, since the Republic of Armenia is a democratic country, a country of free and proud citizens, and this is directly linked with the statehood. The link is that Armenia is already a country, where citizens control, but are not controlled. And being a citizen first of all means being able to make decisions and being able to be responsible for those decisions”, Pashinyan said, noting that education is the key component for doing all that.
