Closing a Facebook Page Does Not Mean Resignation, Says Arsen Torosyan's Advisor

Closing a Facebook page does not mean resignation. This was stated today, August 26, by Ashot Sargsyan, advisor to Health Minister Arsen Torosyan, during a conversation with journalists.

"There is no such discussion, nor has there ever been. Facebook should not invade our lives to the extent that closing a page means resignation. Years ago, hardly anyone used official Facebook pages," he said.

Sargsyan insisted that Torosyan has had no conflict with Nikol Pashinyan, and that he has not been summoned by the National Security Service, which the NSS has also confirmed.

He mentioned that Torosyan is set to go on vacation at the end of the month.
