It’s not a secret that most of Armenians traditionally celebrate the New Year and Christmas at home, in the bosom of their family.

“I will be at home with my family on the New Year eve,” Agriculture Minister Gerasim Alaverdyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. “During the holidays, I will visit my friends and relatives and will welcome guests to drink the best Armenian brandy with them.”

The Minister is also planning to visit the Syunik province, where he comes from.

Transport and Communication Minister Manuk Vardanyan is also going to celebrate the New Year with his family.

“It’s our family tradition to celebrate the New Year at home,” he said.
