Sisian Mayor Did Not Welcome Pashinyan, He Was With the People Demanding His Resignation

“What is there to talk about welcoming him when the Prime Minister comes to Sisian and the mayor is not on site? What does this say?” said Sisian Mayor Arthur Sargsyan in an interview with 'Factinfo,' reacting to Pashinyan's recent Facebook post, where he expressed his belief that he was blocked from entering the cities of Goris, Kapan, and Meghri so that people would not see how residents welcomed him there, as they did in Sisian.

When asked where the Sisian mayor was during Pashinyan's visit to Sisian, Arthur Sargsyan replied that he was on the road to Tatev, where hundreds of residents from Syunik had blocked the road leading to the region to prevent the land-seller Prime Minister from entering the area.
