Davit Khazhakyan denies proposal to debate on Public TV with mayor’s spokesperson, urges mayor not to hide behind spokesperson’s back
Head of Luys faction of the Yerevan Council of Elders Davit Khazhgakyan refuses to debate with the Yerevan mayor’s spokesperson.
“Many mass media representatives expressed readiness to provide live stream for debate. I have also received proposal from Petros Ghazaryan to debate on Public TV but with the mayor’s spokesperson,” Khazhakyan wrote on Facebook, adding that no other official of the municipality but the mayor is authorized to answer the questions he voices and the spokesperson, who does not have any authority to sign under documents, in particular.
“I am not against debates on Public TV but I am against for the mayor to again hide from questions behind the back of the spokesperson. I am waiting for the mayor’s approval to discuss the details of the format,” Khazhakyan wrote.
