According to “Hraparak” information, the CP is looking for candidates for the mayor of Abovyan. You wrote that the candidacy of Hrazdan Forestry Director Hovhannes Abrahamyan is being discussed. Yesterday we learned that a second candidate has appeared - Erik Papyan, who is currently the director of the ENA fleet and a friend of Romanos Petrosyan. According to our information, Papyan is inseparable from Romanos Petrosyan, and also worked with him in the State Security Service.
Our source said that the CP authorities have not yet decided which of these two candidates to nominate. We tried to talk to Papyan, but the ENA told us that he is currently on vacation.
Let us recall that the mayor of Abovyan, Eduard Babayan, who became mayor through Gagik Tsarukyan, despite having worked with the CP in recent years, there is a certain distrust towards him. If Babayan is nominated, according to Abovyan residents, it will be very difficult to defeat him.
