The Yerevan City Council voted 44 to 10 to elect Hrachya Sargsyan as Mayor of Yerevan.

He was elected by a closed, secret ballot in the City Hall. Three ballots were considered invalid.

He thanked outgoing Mayor Hayk Marukyan for the joint work.

“During three years we have started different reforms in different spheres. We will continue the reforms that we have started and are underway for the benefit of the city of Yerevan,” said Hrachya Sargsyan.

Last week the ruling My Step faction initiated a no-confidence motion against Mayor Hayk Marutyan.

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
