"No, exact dates were not named," said the Kremlin representative, answering the question of whether Pashinyan reported the timeframe in which the referendum could take place. "But nevertheless [in the conversation] the need for the speedy holding of such a referendum was emphasized. This is very important," Peskov stressed.
