On Monday or Tuesday the government will make a decision on extending the state of emergency after which extraordinary NA session will be convened, Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said live on Facebook.

“Our conviction is that the state of emergency must be extended to prevent the further spread of the virus. The epidemic is really spreading, and our goal is to register as less cases as possible. Currently we are having 30 cases daily which is quite satisfactory figure,” the premier said.

He also stressed that attempts must be made to keep the economic life alive. In this regard a decision has been made to allow the activity of some types of economic activities.
