Karen Andreasian Decides to Replace Spokesperson with Loyal Associate: 'Hayrapet' News

The newspaper 'Hayrapet' reports: Justice Ministry’s Information and Public Relations Department head Lusine Martirosyan announced yesterday that she is terminating her employment at the Ministry of Justice, but did not specify why she is leaving after nearly 10 years of service. Is she resigning, or did the new minister not wish to work with her? It should be noted that journalists were, in general, satisfied with her work.

We have learned that Karen Andreasian has decided to replace Lusine with a loyal associate and is planning to appoint Mariam Melkumyan, the editor of 'Shabat.am', which is owned by his friend Grigor Minasian, as the spokesperson.

It is also worth mentioning that in September, a deputy minister was appointed who was previously Karen Andreasian’s deputy during his tenure as the Human Rights Defender, Yeranuhi Tumanyan.
