Eduard Aghajanyan, the Chief of Staff of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia, made insulting remarks regarding media outlets on his Facebook page, going beyond borders of politeness.
“Media Advocate” initiative considers such behavior of the state official and the chosen formulations unacceptable. Each individual has the right to demand a denying statement, each state official may deny the article written about him, but it does not mean that he or she may allow himself/herself to insult and label the work of the news outlet.
“Media Advocate” initiative urges Eduard Aghajanyan not to go beyond the limits of politeness and to behave in a manner typical of a high-ranking state official.
