YEREVAN. – Several staff members of Armenia’s outgoing National Assembly Speaker, Hovik Abrahamyan, entered into his office and asked: “Boss, shall we submit resignations, too?”, Zhoghovurd daily writes.          

“In response, Abrahamyan urged them to stay. But NA Speaker’s Assistant Sergey Lokyan (former minister Davit Lokyan’s son), for example, informed Zhoghovurd, on his own initiative, that he is preparing to hand in his resignation once NA Speaker’s resignation is accepted. In a sign of his loyalty to Abrahamyan, Sergey is sacrificing his career,” Zhoghovurd writes.
