Gyumri Municipal Council Strips Ex-Presidents Kocharyan and Sargsyan of "Honorary Citizen" Title
The Gyumri Municipal Council today approved a motion to strip former Armenian presidents Robert Kocharyan and Serzh Sargsyan of the title “Honorary Gyumri Citizen”
The council also stripped Levon Sargsyan, the brother of Serzh Sargsyan and President of the Pyunik Human Resources Development Foundation’s Board of Trustees, of the title.
The motion was submitted by the GALA faction, arguing that none of these individuals had never provided any essential services to Gyumri and that awarding them such a title was purely politically motivated.
The GALA faction also wanted to strip former National Security Service head Gorik Hakobyan, now deceased, of the title as well.
The municipal council did not approve this component of the motion.
