Margarian: I don’t have even a booth

“I don’t have even a booth, let alone a business and for that reason I speak quietly,” the deputy of Orinats Yerkir Party (OEK) faction Hovhannes Margarian stated during a briefing in the National Assembly today.

“I am a kind person. If I had a flour mill, I would send bran to the people who ordered that article about me. As regards the rumors about my apartment in an elite building, I should say that a “Khrushchev building” is not an elite one,” the deputy stressed.

He added that two years ago he took out a mortgage and bought a 64 square meter apartment. “The house was built in the 1950s. It is not a luxurious building. And when I visit Gyumri, I live at my parents’ house, “H. Margarian told reporters.

There were press reports yesterday that the deputy of OEK parliamentary faction owns a number of flour mills, other businesses, and several apartments.
