People Say: If They Don't Deny It, Then Surely Syunik or Lake Sevan Has Been Given Away, Marukyan

Edmon Marukyan, in a conversation with journalists regarding misinformation, stated that in such cases, ministers pertinent to the matter could hold a press conference or issue a statement to refute the claims. “For instance, there is talk that Syunik is being given away; Suren Papikyan could hold a press conference and state that it is nonsense,” said Marukyan. He believes that this can influence public sentiment and dispel panic. “Silence creates a vacuum,” noted the head of the LHK.

“People say: if they don’t deny it, then surely they have given away Syunik or Lake Sevan,” he added.
