YEREVAN, July 2. /ARKA/. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and the Rector of Moscow State University Viktor Sadovnichy awarded today diplomas to the first graduates of the Moscow State University’s branch in Yerevan. The event was attended also by Russian ambassador to Armenia Sergey Kopyrkin.
Kopyrkin said the Yerevan branch of Moscow State University strengthens both the foundations of the Republic of Armenia and the foundations of the relations between the two countries, in which education plays a very significant role.
‘I hope that it will play an even more significant role, since it gives our centuries-old relations additional stability and, very importantly, a perspective,” the ambassador said.
Pashinyan, in his turn, noted that the branch “is in tune with our ideas about the future.” “We are convinced that there is one key to the solution of all the problems that exist in Armenia now – that key is knowledge, science and research,” he said.
Pashinyan also stressed that the Moscow State University branch in Armenia provides an opportunity not only to join the vast experience of Russia’s leading university, but also becomes a new platform for the development of the Russian language in the country.
Rector Sadovnichy said that since the inception of the Yerevan branch 500 professors from Moscow University were dispatched to Armenia.
