The Price of Ararat Mirzoyan’s Vest: An Elite Wardrobe, Elite Real Estate, and Uncomfortable Questions About Asset Declarations

Ararat Mirzoyan’s vest costs more than AMD 2 million, despite his image of someone who could not afford to buy a television on installments. Before coming to power, Ararat Mirzoyan was struggling financially, while today he stands out for his rather luxurious lifestyle, the Red Line Telegram channel wrote.

“During the Civil Contract campaign over the weekend, Mirzoyan was wearing expensive clothing — a woolen jacket-vest by the elite brand Brunello Cucinelli, which costs $5,955, or more than AMD 2 million, in European online stores.

Thus, after coming to power, he had already managed to purchase elite real estate worth around AMD 112 million, while in 2024 Mirzoyan’s wife, Gohar Abajyan, purchased a BMW manufactured in 2024 for EUR 39,405.46 from the German Michael Schmidt car dealership.

It is interesting to wonder what Ararat Mirzoyan, wearing a vest worth approximately four years of an Armenian pensioner’s pension, thinks about whether corruption exists in Armenia or not. Or did he also purchase this vest on credit?”
