Media Advocate slams Eduard Aghajanyan's 'insulting' remarks on media outlets
Media Advocate initiative strongly condemns the "offensive" Facebook post of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s Chief of Staff Eduard Aghajanyan regarding media outlets. A statement issued by the initiative reads:
“Eduard Aghajanyan, the Chief of Staff of the Armenian Prime Minister, made insulting remarks regarding media outlets on his Facebook page, going beyond the boundaries of politeness.
Media Advocate initiative considers such behavior of the state official and the chosen wordings unacceptable. Each individual has the right to demand a denying statement, each state official may deny the article written about him, but it does not mean that he or she may allow himself/herself to insult and label the work of the news outlet.
Media Advocate initiative urges Eduard Aghajanyan not to go beyond the limits of politeness and to behave in a manner typical of a high-ranking state official.”
