Yerevan mayor rules out cooperation with any party
Yerevan Mayor Hayk Marutyan has ruled out cooperation with any political party.
"Dear Yerevan residents, I would like to make three important points for you not to be misled:
1. I have never met Robert Kocharyan under any circumstances, even by chance.
2. If I had time for non-work related meetings, I would have met my kids.
3. I have no desire or intention to cooperate with any party," Marutyan wrote on Facebook on Friday.
His comments came after the ruling My Step bloc, which holds majority at the Yerevan Council of Elders, initiated a no-confidence motion against Marutyan. The bloc has decided to replace him by his deputy Hrachya Sargsyan.
