Armenian ombudsman: High public trust and reputation are the most precious things for us

Panorama, Armenia

Armenia’s Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) Arman Tatoyan expressed his gratitude to people for their support and high trust in his office.

A few days ago, the official representative of the Gallup International Association in Armenia, MPG, published the results of a poll, according to which Armenian Ombudsman Arman Tatoyan topped the rating of political figures.

“A comparative study of a number of previous surveys of the company has revealed that our rating has increased over the months, maintaining a high position,” Tatoyan wrote on Facebook on Sunday.

“Polls conducted by the International Republican Institute (IRI) also show an important result of our work. According to a survey in February 2021, the Armenian ombudsman's office is the second most highly rated state (public) institution after the Armenian army. And according to data for September-October 2019, 63% of respondents trusted the human rights defender.

“High public trust and reputation are the most precious things both for me personally and for the entire staff of the ombudsman's office.

“It further obliges us to be attentive to our words and consistent in our activities.

“Thank you to all the companies for including the human rights defender in their polls,” the ombudsman said.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
