Hakov Simidyan has a Candidate for Minister of Health

The newspaper "Jhoghovurd" reports: "For a long time now, there has been talk that Hakob Simidyan, the secretary of the National Assembly's "My Step" faction, has been lobbying for the appointment of Aram Sahakyan, the son of renowned plastic surgeon Artavazd Sahakyan, in place of the current Minister of Health Arsen Torosyan.

According to information from "Jhoghovurd", Aram Sahakyan is a friend of Hakob Simidyan, which is why he is lobbying within the board of the "Civil Contract" party, claiming that he is the most suitable and acceptable candidate, stating he is the only person who can steer the sector out of this crisis.

On this occasion, the newspaper "Jhoghovurd" contacted Hakob Simidyan for a comment, who denied our information, stating: "There is no such thing. The issue of the Minister of Health has not been discussed, therefore I have not spoken about any candidate, nor have I proposed any candidate. In other words, your information does not correspond with reality." Simidyan also added that he has not had any discussions on this topic and has not lobbied for anyone."
