"Zhoghovurd" daily writes:
"On December 11, 2024, MP Davit Arushanyan announced the resignation of the mandate, and then he was appointed the governor of Shirak. Arushanyan was replaced in the National Assembly by Julieta Azaryan, deputy head of Avan administrative district.
Julieta Azaryan appeared in the political field in the last 2 years, but since 2018 she has been a member of the "Civil Agreement" party. In 2022-2024, Azaryan was appointed deputy head of Avan administrative district, on December 19, 2024, he was elected a member of the National Assembly.
According to the 2024 annual declaration of income, real estate, expenses and interests, Azaryan owns 3 real estates: 2 apartments in Arinj village and Abovyan city, Kotayk marz, and 1 plot of land in Parakar community.
Examining the annual declaration of Azaryan, submitted from 2022, at the time of taking office and for the following years, we noticed inaccuracies. The point is that in the 2022 declaration of assuming the official duties of an official, Julieta Azaryan has 1 apartment acquired in 2021 in the village of Arinj with shared ownership. In 2022, the same apartment is available again, but the location of the real estate is Abovyan community. According to the 2023 declaration, at the beginning of the year he had 1 apartment. Azaryan, who was the deputy head of Avan administrative district at that time, bought a plot of land in Parakar community for 1 million drams in 2023. And here, according to the annual declaration of 2024, Azaryan somehow owns 3 real estates.
In order to clarify the inconsistency, the "Zhoghovurd" daily turned to the deputy of the CP faction of the National Assembly Julieta Azaryan, the latter informed that a mistake had occurred. "There was a bug, I don't have 3 real estates. I have an apartment in Arinj, purchased with a mortgage loan, which is co-owned by my mother.
My statement was also published on the public air," Azaryan mentioned in a conversation with us, adding that he bought the apartment in 2021 with a mortgage loan, as a young family, with an interest rate of 7%, and the apartment cost almost 40 thousand US dollars. Following the MP's publications on social networks, we noticed that Azaryan often publishes videos from inside the car. Examining the declaration, we noticed that the deputy has no movable property.
We also inquired about the car from Azaryan. "I bought the car 2 months ago, so it will be reflected in next year's declaration. I bought it with credit. It costs, if I'm not mistaken, 24 thousand US dollars, most of which I borrowed from the credit facility. It is a BYD car," Azaryan mentioned. The cash funds of the member of the CP made up 678 thousand drams and 6.5 thousand US dollars.
Bank account balances: 181 thousand 675 drams and 1 million 628 thousand drams.
The incomes of the reporting year amounted to 8 million 780 thousand drams, of which 8 million 10 thousand drams were received as wages from the management institution "Yerevan Municipality Staff". 332 thousand 210 drams from the income are wages from the staff of the National Assembly.
As of December 31 of the reporting year, the balance of the principal amount of received loans and borrowings was 13 million 63 thousand drams, which is the balance of the principal amount of the apartment mortgage.
Julieta Azaryan is a member of the board of the territorial organization of the "Civil Agreement" party.
