Pashinyan passed the present during an official dinner which was organized in honour of Trudeau, reports the Department of Information and PR of RA government.

“I was thinking for what Mr. Trudeau is known and for what I am known. Also how could I compete with our beloved Prime Minister? I think I am known for my selfies and Mr. Trudeau for his socks. And in Armenia there is one company that decided to make a special present for the two of us which maybe will result a close friendship. One pair of these shocks is yours, Mr. Prime Minister and one is mine”, said Pashinyan and passed the gift.
