Municipality’s decision to withdraw mass media from its territories another step against media: Satik Seyranyan
The note of the Yerevan Municipality addressed to media occupying the territory of the municipality to leave the territory in five-day time is the same writ the new authorities have adopted against criticism, chairperson of the Union of Journalists Satik Seyranyan said at a press conference today.
“It is an intentional step against media aimed at either bringing it to the field of the authorities or get rid of them. This is not the decision of Hayk Marutyan [mayor]. Who is Hayk Marutyan at last?” Satik Seyranyan said.
She also said she called yesterday the municipality and expected conduction of meeting-discussion with editors, but she was told that the mayor is busy.
“Before doing pompous things, it is right to discuss the issue with partners, I do not think speaking with ultimatums will result in any good,” Seyranyan said.
