Acting Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan’s spokesperson Mane Gevorgyan has responded to former Foreign Minister Ara Aivazian’s statement on the reasons for his resignation.

“We express gratitude to Mr. Aivazian for his work, but we believe that our state interest and national interest oblige Mr. Aivazian to publicly clarify who was preparing to take a step or make a decision contradicting our country’s state and national interests, when, where and how. We look forward to receiving Mr. Aivazian’s public clarification,” Gevorgyan stated, commenting on Aivazian’s statement in an interview with Armenpress news agency.
