Call for Dismissal of Eduard Sharmazanov's Mother: His Statement

Earlier today, I learned that a report was published in a family media outlet of the Prime Minister stating that the Lori Regional Administration has sued the Mayor of Alaverdi, demanding the dismissal of Laura Avagyan, the director of Alaverdi’s number 4 kindergarten, due to her reaching retirement age. This was mentioned by the spokesperson for the Republican Party, Eduard Sharmazanov.

“Of course, if Laura Avagyan were not my mother, Eduard Sharmazanov, this issue wouldn’t have stirred up such a storm in a glass of water. But this is another aspect of the matter. The core of the issue is the moral character of the 'velvet revolutionaries,' about which I no longer wish to speak after the National Security Service summoned the young daughters of Hrayr Tovmasyan. In fact, the fascist-velvet individuals do not spare even elderly parents. Just one consideration: instead of staging ‘hurry-up’ noise shows, they should simply announce that Laura Avagyan has an employment contract in accordance with the law, which is set to expire in January 2020.

Moreover, my mother has expressed her willingness to resign twice to keep the municipal authorities free of pressure, to which she received refusals.

P.S. Smile, gentlemen, smile, this is ‘the new Armenia’.”
