Various negative articles were published on the President of the Republic of Armenia Armen Sargsyan.

Constitutional expert Gor Hovhannisyan, referring to the offer to put forward his candidacy for the post of a judge of the Constitutional Court, stated: “A few days ago, the President’s Office asked me twice if the President could discuss the issue of nominating my candidacy again. I have rejected the offer twice as I consider the termination of the three judges to be unconstitutional, so I may not afford myself to run for the vacancy which was left unconstitutionally.”

Touching upon the same topic, the press wrote that there are three vacancies of judges in the Constitutional Court, and in the next session starting in September, the elections of them should take place, but before that, the Government, President Armen Sargsyan and the General Assembly of Judges should present their nominations, however, it turns out that the latter ones fail to find a candidate.

Sona Aghekyan, a former member of the Yerevan Council of Elders, referring to Armen Sargsyan, noted. “In my country, the president is someone who does not have RA citizenship, this circumstance insults me.”

According to the press, the Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan and the President Armen Sargsyan are making fundraising calls two days apart… Nikol is “welcoming” everyone to the “Zinvor” (“Soldier”) Foundation, and the President to the “Hayastan” All-Armenian Fund.

Facebook user Vahram Petrosyan, referring to the 1000 drams provided for soldiers, wrote: The incumbent President of Armenia called for the transfer of money to the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund to support border settlements. Do you know what is ridiculous, millionaire (Euro) Armen Sargsyan, has not transferred a single dram to the Insurance Foundation for the Servicemen or to the border settlements. Not a single dram, but by making those calls, he tried to advertise himself as much as possible.”

 

The publication was prepared with the support of “Hayrenik” Development Foundation
