The champion of the discussions on social media revolving around the RA NA Speaker, Ararat Mirzoyan\u2019s visit to Artsakh was the umbrella being held over his wife, Gohar Abadjyan\u2019s head.<\/p>\n

The photos<\/a> taken at the Stepanakert\u2019s Brotherhood Memorial and which were published on the Artsakh Parliament\u2019s Facebook page show how a man was holding an umbrella over Gohar Abadjyan\u2019s head.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Furthermore, there was no umbrella held over the head of the NA chairman, Ararat Mirzoyan.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The presence of an umbrella was not according to the position, it was according to sex.<\/p>\n

At first, social network users discussed the NA Speaker\u2019s wife and the umbrella, then the websites. Basically websites that re-publish materials and run after easy content. Naturally, copying each other word for word.  <\/p>\n

Those who believe that Gohar Abadjyan having an umbrella held for her was out of arrogance or shows an abuse of power, or those who just perceived it as a negative phenomenon, brought numerous and diverse photos of when leaders of different states, Obama, Merkel and others, held their own umbrellas.<\/p>\n

Those who want to counter this argument simply need to conduct a light search on the internet. Pictures where the same politicians have umbrellas being held for them can just as easily be found.<\/p>\n

For example, Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n
