Hayk Marutyan Kissed Shushan Petrosyan, Toasted to Her

The newspaper "Hraparak" reports: On September 1, in Stepanakert, the events marking "Yerevan Days in Artsakh" began, attended by Yerevan Mayor Hayk Marutyan, various officials from his office, and city council members.

Within the framework of the event, celebrations dedicated to the 80th anniversary of Tigran Mansuryan also commenced in Stepanakert. Various activities were held in honor of the maestro, which culminated in a festive banquet attended by the mayors and representatives of Yerevan and Stepanakert.

We learned that the banquet was accompanied by Mansuryan's two sisters and the daughter of his sister, former parliamentary member and singer Shushan Petrosyan. However, in the environment filled with newly elected officials, Shushan appeared to be in a state of "discomfort," as she seemed to be walking on thorns the entire time, due to the presence of many attendees from the "opposing" camp.

But after some time, the toasts became sweeter, and the Mayor of Stepanakert suggested that the attendees toast not only to Maestro Mansuryan but also to Shushan Petrosyan, acknowledging her contributions to Armenian music and Artsakh as a talented artist. This was confirmed by Hayk Marutyan, who even approached to kiss Shushan. Some members of the My Step faction, albeit reluctantly, got to their feet and toasted to the former parliamentary member-singer from the Republican Party.
