All the critical comments of the members of the Republican Party of
Armenia (RPA) on Robert Kocharyan's statement supporting the
ex-minister, member of the Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) Vartan
Oskanian are dictated by one center, Aghvan Vardanyan, representative
of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun Faction,
said at a briefing in Parliament.
Vardanyan is sure that the process against Oskanian is politically
charged and has signs of political persecution. In the meantime, he
expressed concern over the fact that the PAP boycotted the past
four-day session in the Parliament. He is sure that this step of the
PAP may lead to serious consequences, and it is not known yet whether
the faction will return to the Parliament or not.
Vartan Oskanian was deprived of deputy immunity on October 2. To
recall, Robert Kocharyan said on this occasion: "I have thoroughly
studied the materials of Oskanian's case and could not find the answer
to the question what the NSS, prosecutor general's office and the
parliament had in common with the friendly relations of Vartan
Oskanian and John Huntsman". Oskanian has always been one of the most
successful ministers and a sincere figure, which is an extremely rare
feature in our political reality, he said. "People like him, with such
features and merits, should be cherished and not persecuted,
especially taking into consideration the fact that he represents a
political force with a very big electorate. I am sorry for what had
happened and express my support and sympathy to Vartan Oskanian", -
the statement of the second president of Armenia says.
