Lilit Galstian may take over V. Hovhannisian’s seat in parliament
The possible appointment of Vahan Hovhannisian as Armenian ambassador to Germany is still under discussion, ‘Iravunk’ paper writes. The press reported that former agriculture minister Aramais Grigorian is the next person on the proportional list of the ARF-Dashnaktsutyun Party.
“Yet the ARFD believes that a female deputy should be included in their parliamentary faction. Ruzanna Arakelian is number 11 on the list of ARFD, but Vahan Hovhannisian doesn’t object to transferring his deputy mandate to Lilit Galstian,” the paper says.
‘Iravunk’ asked Lilit Galstain if he intends to take over the parliamentary seat. “I think it is inappropriate to comment on such a question when Vahan Hovhannisian is still a parliamentary deputy and my good friend”, she said.
