Yes, Anna Hakobyan is in Moscow with her two daughters. Hrachya Hakobyan, an MP of the majority My Step faction of the National Assembly of Armenia and brother-in-law of PM Nikol Pashinyan, stated this in a talk with reporters in the parliament on Wednesday. He also refuted the news that Ashot Pashinyan has also departed with them.

“When the Telegram channel reported the news, since I knew that Anna Hakobyan had left for Moscow with her two daughters and the Telegram channel caused uproar by stating that Ashot Pashinyan is also with them since there was a young man taking items from the car, I called Ashot Pashinyan on the phone and asked him where he was, to which he said he was at home.

This is a personal visit. There is no and can’t be any issue related to citizenship, and they aren’t looking for a house. It’s really ridiculous when people in Armenia say Anna Hakobyan and her two daughters have gone to Moscow to choose a house,” he said.

When asked how Anna Hakobyan managed to depart when entry into the Russian Federation is prohibited, Hrachya Hakobyan said the following: “I don’t know how the personal visit was organized. If there are points that need to be crossed, perhaps they crossed those points and entered the country.”
