Yes, Robert Kocharyan Has Decided to Leave 'Systema'. The Office Confirms

Recently, the press reported that Robert Kocharyan, who has been a member of the board of directors of Russia's largest 'SYSTEMA' BFC since 2009, is stepping down from his position. To clarify the information and learn about the reasons, Yerevan.Today contacted Viktor Soghomonyan, the head of the second president's office.

"Yes, Robert Kocharyan has decided to leave BFC 'Systema'. A few days ago, he refused to continue working on the board of directors. While valuing the history of 12 years of effective work, President Kocharyan has nevertheless made the principled decision to decline the opportunity to continue. He will complete his obligations after the shareholders' meeting scheduled for the end of June. President Kocharyan will focus his attention and efforts on overcoming the challenges facing Armenia and addressing political agenda issues," said Viktor Soghomonyan.
