Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan tested positive for COVID-19 a few days ago and will not attend the upcoming CIS summit in Russia even though he has already recovered.
“On Monday, December 23rd, I tested positive for COVID,” Pashinyan said on social media. “I was in isolation, working from my residence on December 23 and 24. On December 25, I already tested negative and I am returning to the usual working mode. Nevertheless, having consulted with colleagues, I will not participate in the upcoming informal summit of the CIS in Saint Petersburg today. Tonight I will make a decision about whether or not I will participate in the EEU Supreme Economic Council session tomorrow.”
