ARMNOC anthem prevents singer Leyla Saribekyan from becoming MP

According to Yerkir daily, RPA also planned to include singer Leyla Saribekyan in its proportional representation list for Sushan Petrosyan not to feel alone in the parliament. However, the source said, RPA renounced its decision at the last moment.

“That is because Leyla Saribekyan once performed the anthem of the National Olympic Committee of Armenia, and we know that ARMNOC President is the Chairman of Prosperous Armenia Party Gagik Tsarukyan,” writes the newspaper.
