Recently, several publications ran articles containing false
allegations against the Armenian Revolutionary Federation. This
prompted National Assembly's ARF faction secretary Hrayr Karapetian to
make a statement on the National Assembly floor.
"Recently, several publications, using known methods, have been
printing articles against prominent ARF figures and officials," he
said in the statement.
"The articles aim at discredit the ARF and trigger a mistrust in the
ARF figures and officials in the context of elections. Those who
organize this campaign that has far-reaching goals against the ARF,
are disturbed by the ARF popularity and especially in the fields where
the ARF representatives have shown great success."
He also warned that such activities against the ARF were never
successful in the past too since the people have long offered their
assessment of the party and those who spread lies about it. Karapetian
reminded the infamous TV statement made by the first Armenian
president, Levon Ter-Petrosian, who sounded similar ungrounded
allegations against the ARF.
"I am confident that like in the past, this time too, our people would
express their clear attitudes," Karapetian concluded.
