Heritage Party spokesperson Hovsep Khurshudyan today charged the
Armenian government with leading an attack against the party and its
leader Raffi Hovhannisyan.
At a press conference, Mr. Khurshudyan stated, "This begs the
question why now? This negative campaign hints at the possibility
that the regime is preparing for early parliamentary or presidential
elections. I don't foresee this but I don't rule it out either."
"This campaign is based on falsehoods. Recently Galust Sahakyan
circulated a pack of lies which we refuted. But after this the flood
of absurdities and lies continued and proves that there's a directive
out to do so. The lies are being presented via the T.V. as well but
we can only respond via the newspapers," he added Mr. Khurshudyan
called on T.V. stations to afford his party ample time to respond to
the charges being leveled at it. He said that the Heritage Party would
soon be issuing a statement of the government's assault against it.
