Postanjyan: Armenia`s plenipotentiary structures should start a case in connection with immoral behavior of members of the Republican Party in the Yerevan Council of Elders
ArmInfo."I think that what happened in the light of the elders of Yerevan is hooliganism, this is a punishable act." Now I and the members of our party intend to
wait and see how the authorized structures react to this, "Yerkir Tsirani Party leader stated at a press conference on October 13 Zaruhi Postanjyan, referring to the rude behavior of RPA members in the Yerevan Council of Elders.
"If the RPA representatives have no health problems, their behavior
should be considered as hooliganism, and if they are sick, they
should be treated," the party leader said, adding that if there are
no reactions from the law enforcers to the actions of the RPA
members, it is in once again proves that the laws in Armenia do not
work.
At the same time, Postanjyan stated that she was hurt not so much by
the improper behavior of the Republicans, as by the methods of work
of the capital's mayor's office and the mayor Taron Margaryan
himself. "Who and by what method determines who should get apartments
free of charge in the ownership at the expense of the capital's
municipality? Why different actors, singers or TV presenter, when
there are so many socially unsecured families in the country? And in
general, these apartments should not be given to the property, but
should to be given as social housing to those who do not have a roof
over their heads," said Postanjyan, stressing that only the change of
power can save the situation.
On October 11 the meeting of the Council of Elders of Yerevan was
held in an extremely heated atmosphere. The agenda included the issue
of awarding the titles of "Honorary Citizen of Yerevan" to several
artists. During the discussion of the candidates, a scandal arose
with the participation of representatives of the factions of the
ruling Republican Party and the opposition Yerkir Tsirani. The
Republicans pulled out the behavior of the Council members from the
"Yerkir Tsirani", who repeatedly interrupted the meeting, expressed
their discontent or shouted from their seats. In this regard, the
vice- mayor Kamo Areyan took the floor, from whose unrelated phrases
it could be understood that the RPA faction would not allow
oppositionists to denigrate the honest name of the mayor Taron
Margaryan and his team, to turn their lives into hell. Moreover,
Areyan promised to deprive the members of "Yerkir Tsirani" of a place
in Paradise, obviously forgetting that these places are not
distributed by the Yerevan City Hall. Then Areyan accused
representatives of "Yerkir zirani" in infantilism and offered to shut
up. Another representative of the RPA faction in the Council, Kamo
Hovhannisyan, threatened Yerkir Tsirani member Marina Khachatryan
with a court for insulting the honor and dignity of the mayor Taron
Margaryan. At the end of the passion heated up to the fact that the
architect Levon Igityan began to swear at women from the "Yerkir
Tsirani" obscene language.
