Karen Shaboyan, a member of the FFA Executive Committee.
"Dear friends, I would like to inform you that I refuse the membership of the FFA Executive Committee.
During the Pyunik-Ararat-Armenia meeting, 9 dedicated fans of Armenian football were arrested as a result of the violent and disproportionate force applied by the RA Police.
Being a founding member of FAF in 18 years I have never met such an attitude when 9 fans are arrested for 72 hours, and a criminal case is being filed against them.
Until now, I refrain from expressing a public position, preferring to solve the problems through individual contacts.
I have offered to meet with fans, to sincerely discuss the established issues and fix the current programs to complete the current plans. Unfortunately, this proposal was not accepted. "
