Vardan Ghukasyan Responds to Pashinyan's Statements

I will not stoop to their level, and I will not respond in kind to the word 'shoved', but I can respond to them one by one. This was stated by the mayor of Gyumri, Vardan Ghukasyan, in a conversation with journalists while reacting to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's statements.

“If the Prime Minister of Armenia tells a person elected as mayor six times and as a deputy in the National Assembly twice that he should be ‘shoved out’, I simply want to tell the Armenian people: look at whom we have chosen as the Prime Minister of Armenia,” said Ghukasyan.

It should be recalled that Nikol Pashinyan, during a Q&A session in the National Assembly, mentioned that those making statements against Armenia's sovereignty should simply be expelled from the political and public arena.
