What Arman Tatoyan Will Do After Leaving Office

The newspaper 'Zhoghovurd' reports that yesterday, by a vote of 68 in favor, Kristine Grigoryan was elected as the new Human Rights Defender in parliament. In this context, 'Zhoghovurd' sought clarification from the current Human Rights Defender, Arman Tatoyan, regarding his plans after his term ends. According to our information, he is expected to take up the position of Dean at the American University soon.

For a comment, we reached out to the office of the Human Rights Defender, which stated, 'There is no such question at this time.' It is noteworthy that Arman Tatoyan's term as the ombudsman will expire on February 23. He assumed the position of Human Rights Defender on February 23, 2016. According to the law, the newly appointed defender will begin the performance of his duties the day after the expiration of the previous Human Rights Defender's term, following an oath-taking ceremony in the National Assembly.

The ruling 'Civil Contract' party nominated Kristine Grigoryan for the position. The authorities believe that Grigoryan is a professional and suited for this post; however, it is important to note that she was elected solely with the votes of the ruling party members, as the opposition abstained from voting.
