Not all invitees attended Tsarukian's event because of sport ministry
Monday, December 30, 2013
Gagik Tsarukian, or, to be more precise, Armenia's Olympic Committee
led by him presented awards to the top ten sportsmen of Armenia at
Pharaoh Restaurant yesterday, `Hraparak' paper writes.
The chief of the Presidential Staff Vigen Sargsyan represented
President Serzh Sargsyan at the event. Former President Robert
Kocharian was also present.
`The event was overshadowed due to differences between the Sports and
Youth Affairs Ministry and Armenia's Olympic Committee. The day before
ministry employees called heads of sports schools and various
sportsmen, urging them not to attend the awards ceremony. For this
reason some of the invitees, being afraid of consequences, did not
participate in the event,' `Hraparak' says.
