A public official must have a system of values and should not cling to office at any cost. Liparit Drmeyan

During 24TV’s program “Interview with Hermine Mikayelyan,” Liparit Drmeyan, a member of the Wings of Unity party, commented on the vote-buying case presented by the Anti-Corruption Committee concerning their political force. He stated that punitive actions are being carried out against them and expressed confidence that the case is fabricated and that they will eventually be acquitted.

Speaking about the reasons for his dismissal, Drmeyan emphasized that he cannot be responsible for the Prime Minister’s feelings. He said that even if the letter regarding the interim arbitral decision had been sent to him five times, he would have given the same response each time.

“A public official must have a system of values and should not cling to office at any cost. I have already paid that price. I demonstrated principled conduct both in matters of interstate complaints and within the framework of the arbitration proceedings. A public official should not be merely loyal and compliant but should be guided by values. Officials are effectively held captive by Pashinyan. When choosing between money and material interests on the one hand and dignity on the other, you should choose dignity,” Drmeyan said.
