Anahit Avanesyan: It was Center`s management that considered it expedient to terminate employment contract with Dr. Danielyan
ArmInfo. The termination of the employment contract with Dr. Samvel Danielyan was considered appropriate by the management of the Hematology Center after
Prof.R.H. Yeolyan, Armenian Health Minister Anahit Avanesyan stated
during a briefing to journalists on May 23. "I can't say more," she
emphasized.
When asked whether Danielyan's greeting of Bagrat Srbazan during the
rally stimulated this expediency, and whether the same fate awaits
other employees of the department, Avanesyan answered 'no', inviting
media representatives to independently conduct monitoring and explain
the situation.
On May 15 it became known that director of the Hematology Center
after Prof.R.H. Yeolyan, Samvel Danielyan has been relieved of his
position. This was reported by the Center's doctor, Gevorg Tamamyan,
who then submitted a letter of resignation. He did not rule out that
the reason for Dr. Danielyan's dismissal was his greeting of Bagrat
Srbazan during the march. "And I assume that after this the Minister
of Health was presented with a demand to resolve this issue as soon
as possible. If someone gets fired from their job for greeting
someone, then it's hard to imagine a more authoritarian approach,"
said Tamamyan.
