"Armen Gevorkian possesses adequate experience to carry out properly complex duties of the Secretary of the RA National Security Council. I know him for almost twenty years, we worked together, and throughout these years I don’t recall a single instance when he would have a problem in the execution of his duties. In the process, he also contributed to the works of the NSC and was involved in the issues that had a direct relation to the NSC area of responsibility. I have no doubt that in a short period of time with your assistance he will be able to demonstrate to our society and our state that the National Security Council is an important link in our state governance structure. You are all well aware that the RA NSC is a consultative body, however every important issue is discussed in the Council and later decisions are adopted based on these discussions," said President Serzh Sargsyan.
