YEREVAN, January 14. /ARKA/. Discussions on the construction of a new penal institution in Armenia are currently ongoing, said Armenian Justice Minister Srbuhi Galyan.

"I do not link the introduction of a new model for the penal institution with the new building conditions," Galyan said at a press conference on Tuesday.

She emphasized that the main goal should be to enhance the professional skills of the penal institution staff.

"The staff also need a new 'image' so they can better understand the goals and responsibilities of their work," Galyan added.
