In the prime minister's words, the topic raised by the representatives of the episcopal hierarchy in their statement shows that we are dealing with a very important common agenda when addressed on a personal level. In his remarks, Nikol Pashinyan touched on the need to have a value-based public, a value-based state, and a value-based society, and noted that the value-based nature of the state and society is also connected with spiritual life. It was emphasized that our values primarily relate to our spiritual values, and in reality the role that spiritual values play for us largely determines the value-based character of the state and society.
