Does Parliamentary Speaker Need Over a Dozen Aides and Assistants? Newspaper

The number of RA National Assembly President Galust Sahakyan's assistants, advisors, and aides has crossed the boundaries of logic, reports local daily Zhoghovurd.

Sahakyan has 7 advisors, 6 assistants, and 4 aides, whose salaries are paid from the state budget but, as the newspaper reports, who do nothing, and the doors of their offices remain closed for days.

Zhoghovurd reports that Sahakyan "inherited" this plethora of staff from his predecessor, Hovik Abrahamyan. However, before assuming office, the current parliamentary speaker added two more people to the number of assistants and advisors, including "his people" among them.
