Armenia celebrates Day of Independence of the First Republic on May 28. On this day of 1918 the Armenian National Council announced the independence of Armenia, and on the next day West and East Bureau of ARF Dashnaktsyutyun appointed architect Hovhannes Kajaznuni first Prime Minister of independent Armenia and chose Yerevan as the capital city of the new state.

The independent Armenian state lasted until December 2 1920.

Premier Sargsyan also noted that the nest sitting will start with discussion of implementation of the assignments.

“There are many assignments and time schedules for activities which fail to meet the deadline or are not being implemented fully and are reason for rather low quality of implementation,” he said.

Sargsyan suggested ministers and heads of agencies to devote the next week to reports and ascertainment of the processes of implementation of the assignments.

“On our next sitting we will try to find out what is the problem and why we do not manage to finish our programs in time,” he said. G. S. –0--
