Spokesperson of the Ministry of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure of Armenia Armine Muradyan has refused to comment on the controversial phone talk that was disseminated yesterday.

“I have no comment,” she told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

As reported earlier, a telephone conversation between the acting Minister of Territorial Administration and Development of Armenia, Suren Papikyan, and the mayor of Etchmiadzin city, Dianna Gasparyan, is going viral on the Internet.

In this telephone conversation, Gasparyan complains about acting PM Nikol Pashinyan, stating that he must step down for the sake of the state. "Let them choose someone [else] from the team, let them choose you. He has already gone [in the head]; his psyche cannot stand [it anymore]," she added.

In response, Papikyan urges her to keep calm.

We tried to contact them and get comments, but to no avail.
