Armenian National Congress coordinator Levon Zurabyan, with
journalists' permission at today's press conference, referred to
Armenia's second president Robert Kocharian's statements yesterday,
which were directed at first president Levon Ter-Petrossian.
"It would be my pleasure to comment on the political statement.
Unfortunately, the statement in question is a hunter's statement, a
hunter's lexicon, which we don't understand [here] in politics, since
we haven't participated in safaris. What can I say, it's unfortunate,
but that man has not risen above such low standards," said Zurabyan.
Continuing, the ANC coordinator noted that during Levon
Ter-Petrossian's last speech, specific accusations were made, specific
facts were registered, and one must refer to those directly, if there
was anything to be said.
Kocharian had stated that the accusations against him which Levon
Ter-Petrossian made in his last speech were absurd and in order to
illustrate his point, he had recounted an experience he had in Africa,
sitting around a bonfire with local hunters.
