The information about my resignation is false, Armenian Justice Minister Grigor Minasyan told reporters after the cabinet meeting. Minasyan wanted to avoid answering whether Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan was satisfied with his work. He assured that Gevorg Simonyan was released from the position of the head of the probation service, according to his application.
According to Minasyan, the former director of the penitentiary service, Sergey Atomyan, was also dismissed from his position according to his application. “No one forces anything on anyone. This is a normal work process, and if people don’t adapt to the new standards, they decide to change their jobs,” said Minasyan. In response to the question of ratification of the Rome Statute, Minasyan repeated the statement made by Pashinyan the previous day that it is aimed at increasing new international criminal law levers in our sovereign territory. The Minister of Justice did not answer the journalist’s concrete question about whether you will arrest Vladimir Putin if he visits Armenia.
