"I do not allow to name Hrant Khachatryan next to oligarchic-criminal
system. That person with his 18 years of political record has proved
that he is the enemy of such oligarchic system," Haik Babukhanyan,
acting Constitutional Right Union (CRU) chairman said.
He said some one and two ex-members of CRU supporting the authorities
have said that Iravunk newspaper must get rid of Haik Babukhanyan's
presence. Among such he mentioned the name of Karen Vardanyan who
was supposedly a member of Hrant Khacahtryan's "team" and blamed
Babukhanyan in misapropriation of funds.
Babukhanyan said Vardanyan is expeled from the party after the
Supervision Committee of the party checked the his claims.
Babukhanyan repeatedly said, "The problem was not between me and Hrant
Khachatryan. The problem was between CRU and Iravunk newspaper on one
hand and the criminal-oligarchic system, on the other hand." He said
the authorities variously prosecuted Iravunk newspaper. "In 1996 the
office of the newspaper was closed. In 1999 I was arrested on unclear
claims. An attempt of assisnation against me was made in 2003.
After that they tried so to say "bribe" Iravunk newspaper. They also
tried to discredit and impose economic pressures on the newspaper. A
phase of terror started against me and reporters followed. And finally,
after my open letters, one and two ex-members say that Iravunk
newspaper should be freed from my presence," Babukhanyan continues.
The CRU acting chairman also said the oligarchic-criminal system
launched when Serzh Sargsyan joined Armenian Republican Party (HHK).
Babukhanyan said his party is ready to cooperate even with Armenian
Revolutionary Federation (Dashnakcutiun) on a condition that the
latter withdraws from the ruling coalition. Among possible allies,
CRU acting chairman mentioned the names of Alliance party, Orinats
Yerkir, National Unity and Justice Block.
However, he said there are problems with the "passive" disposition
of Justice Block. The only person with who Haik Babukhanyan sees not
borders of cooperation is Serzh Sargsyan.
