Artsakh Deputy Prime Minister Artur Aghabegyan called for greater investment in the country during a meeting with representatives of the All Armenian Fund’s French affiliate.

Aghabegyan said that in the 21st century the first challenge in the struggle to preserve Armenian identity is to build a developed and strong fatherland.

When asked by the representatives about the possible opening of the Stepanakert airport, Aghabegyan said his government expects the assistance of the international community and called on Armenians living abroad to lobby their governments on the matter.
