“Our relationship with Gor Vardanyan will be on the minimum. How can I work with Gor Vardanyan? “, asked whether the cooperation with the newly appointed Yerevan City Mayor Adviser Gor Vardanyan will be productive, answered Yerevan City Council “Yelq” bloc member Alen Simonyan.
Let us remind you that Yerevan City Mayor Taron Margaryan has appointed Gor Vardanyan as one of his advisers, who will coordinate the work of the sports department of the staff.
Alen Simonyan witnessed during the interview that the Mayor himself has appointed Vardanyan the adviser to give him advice, and in practice, Vardanyan cannot give them advice.
Alen Simonyan went into details: “Vardanyan as a political, official figure can give advice to our alliance neither by office nor in practice.”
Asked whether one can say that Mr. Vardanyan knows the issues of Yerevan well, judging from his activity and that he will be able to help the Mayor with his advice, Mr. Simonyan replied: “I do not know him and I do not think we have anything common. Neither do I want to give estimations about him. The attitude and response of the public which is and will be in place, are the vivid evidence of it.”
Alen Simonyan reminded us that Gor Vardanyan has already worked in Yerevan Municipality during Gagik Beglaryan’s term of office again it the field of sports. However, it will be incorrect to say it has been a long-term office.
Yerevan City Council “Yelq” bloc member characterizes Taron Margaryan’s appointment “as a step taken for some services and requests, which will not bring to a positive response for Taron Margaryan’s activity, and cannot have a positive impact on Taron Margaryan’s rating”. Yerevan City Council “Yelq” bloc member, Arayik Harutyunyan considers this appointment a 3rd, 4th class appointment, and does not consider it necessary to touch upon it.
