Mayor of Yerevan Karen Karapetyan is going to submit a resignation
application because of moving to another office and some personal
reasons. He stated about it in the interview to "ArmNews" TV channel.
"I have made the decision of leaving the office of the mayor with
great difficulty, and I ask the Yerevan residents to be indulgent
if I have not justified certain hopes. At the same time I am very
pleased with words of gratitude of the citizens they express through
social web sites," the outgoing mayor said. He noted that his family
members also received the news with difficulty.
Karen Karapetyan rejected the news that his resignation is connected
with certain disputes in the Republican party. "I have enjoyed the
unlimited trust of the President and the party. I have spoken with
the President about the resignation. He respects my decision. My
resignation does not mean that I am going out of the president's team.
I have very friendly relations with the president's team," Karen
Karapetyan said.
At the same time the mayor did not reject the news that he is going to
take office in the RF. "A very good team has been gathered in the City
Hall. I am sure in two-three years the city will be unrecognizable,"
he noted.
