YEREVAN. – Past daily of the Republic of Armenia (RA) writes: As we reported last year, RA Consul General in Lyon, France, Nikolai Sarkisov has been relieved of his post.

It is noteworthy that this dismissal was not publicized for a long time.

According to our sources, after the press (...) published scandalous information about Sarkisov, this was immediately reported to RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, who ordered the dismissal of the consul "within three days."

After that, Sarkisov, of course, wrote a letter of resignation.

It should be reminded that Sarkisov was declared wanted as part of a criminal case in Ukraine, and at the request of the Ukrainian police, the French Republic national police sent a corresponding request to the RA Consulate in Lyon.

Sarkisov is in the spotlight of the Ukrainian and French police.
