Flower exports increase, minister says![]() July 9, 2026 - 15:46 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian Economy Minister Gevorg Papoyan said at a government meeting that flower exports have increased. "Yesterday alone, for example, we exported 139,000 flowers. We believe certain mechanisms are already in place that will help resolve this issue," he said, according to Radar Armenia. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan also noted that Armenia has not recorded an exceptionally large apricot harvest this year.
