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

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.
