Opposition members of Yerevan City Council face ouster
The Yerevan City Council started a session on Tuesday with 37 items on the agenda.
The municipal council, among other things, will debate the ouster of its three opposition members Grigor Yeritsyan, Anuysh Khudaverdyan and Anush Ginosyan.
Yeritsyan, who heads the opposition National Progress faction, accused Yerevan Mayor Tigran Avinyan of retribution against his political opponents “which would set a dangerous precedent as no opposition faction leader has been stripped of his seat by Armenia’s ruling force to date.”
