The department clarified that two administrative proceedings have been initiated. The first concerned the broadcast of the program “Friday with Tigran Keosayan” on November 17. The second administrative proceedings were initiated because of the Abovyan Time program.
A month later, the commission lifted the ban on broadcasting Sputnik Armenia.
