Armenia does not intend to expand the number of its consulates in Russia, the Armenian Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador to Russia Vardan Tokhanyan said during Moscow-Yerevan video conference talks.
"At the same time, there is a problem of covering the rest of the territory. For example, about 2000 Armenian citizens live in Kamchatka, so it would take nine hours to get a certificate," Tokhanyan said, adding that Armenia is considering resuming the institute of visiting consuls, NEWS.am reports.
Today, there are four general consulates of Armenia in Russia, they are in Moscow, Rostov-on-Don, St. Petersburg and Sochi.
