Union of Armenians of Russia states to support the ex-foreign minister,
Member of Parliament Vartan Oskanian.
"Prosecution of a famous political figure in the pre-election period
arouses doubts about the political motivation of this case. As a
member of a well-off family of jewelers, Vartan Minas Oskanian is
not the person to be the target of fight against corruption and
shadow economy."
"The law enforcement bodies must stop prosecution; the grounds are
up to the law enforcement bodies," the Union of Armenians of Russia
states, urging the parliament to vote against the motion of the
prosecutor general to strip Vartan Oskanian of parliamentary immunity.
The Union states the respectable diplomat and political figure should
not have to prove his innocence in parliament.
The Union calls on Armenians and the citizens of Armenia to collect
signatures for Oskanian to submit to the president of Armenia, and
urges the leader of the Prosperous Armenia Party to defend the good
name of Vartan Oskanian who has become the symbol of foreign policy
of Armenia and a vivid example of successful repatriation.
With a politically motivated case against Oskanian there, nobody will
dare invite Armenians to Armenia and ask for their assistance.
