"Zhoghovurd" daily writes:
"Tigran Avinyan presents himself like a pregnant official. held a closing press conference in a half-empty hall, with few media and questions to please the palate.
This is how Tigran Avinyan, the flamboyant mayor of Yerevan, who organizes lavish shopping and business trips at the expense of the city budget, imagines the nature of the press conference, which is usually called to answer the questions of journalists of all mass media, with the clear purpose of clarifying issues of interest to the public.
Let us also inform that Tigran Avinyan decided to hold a final press conference in the evening, inviting not journalists but editors.
We were informed that yesterday the journalists actively covering the work of the municipality for the past year were not allowed to participate in the press conference of Avinyan, and as a justification they said that only the editors were invited.
This time, "Zhoghovurd" daily newspaper was deprived of the opportunity to ask questions at the mayor's press conference, the municipality did not consider it necessary to send us an invitation, because we dared to publish an article about the suspicions of Avinyan's corrupt practices, how he was accused at the session of the CP active, and how the mayor sent threatening messages. to his teammate Arpi Davoyan: I will destroy you.
Of course, it is understandable that the mayor who called the media "garbage" would not be happy to answer a number of sharp questions, but experience has shown that the officials always lose in the fight with the media, as the famous saying goes, flies and officials are killed with the same tool: a newspaper. :
"Zhoghovurd" daily newspaper tried to find out from Yerevan mayor's spokesman Hayk Kostanyan what method was used to organize the media draw, but the latter did not respond. By the way, Avinyan's father also appeared in the center of the scandal yesterday, but not on the topic of slapping, as he did, but with a shameful statement.
"They will build 500,000 "stayankans" so that every Hambal doesn't stop here with his beautiful Opel... Go to Italy, see if they have to pay for a car to enter the city center," said the mayor's father, Armen Avinyan.
This is the second slap on the RA citizen by the CP elite after the story of Alen Simonyan spitting on the citizen.
The target is "village Opel" drivers.
