Yerevan ex-mayor labels journalist insane - paper

On May 1, Buzand street in Yerevan was blocked over a meeting of Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) members at Armenian President and RPA leader Serzh Sargsyan’s headquarters, according to Zhoghovurd paper.

While ex-mayor of Yerevan Gagik Beglaryan and RPA candidates Ruben Sadoyan and Garegin Nushikyan were waiting for President Sargsyan, the journalists were trying to get a word out of Mr. Beglaryan. However, he refrained from answering, saying he would speak in two weeks.

Hraparak paper journalist’s observation, dubbing engagement in politics without answering questions meaningless, sparked the former mayor’s outrage who called her insane.
