The statement of the US Ambassador to Armenia John Heffern about the
criminal charges against ex-FM Vartan Oskanian deepened the suspicions
more, deputy leader of the ruling Republican party Galust Sahakyan
told the reporters on Friday.
"The suspicions that he is engaged in money laundering deepened more.
Why for instance the opinion was not voiced by ambassadors of China,
Japan. I know Oskanian quite well. I want to understand who will
bring two million dollars and give it to him, saying 'do charity in
a way you want'. A philanthropist gives a program," he claimed.
Asked whether Sahakyan suspects Huntsman, the ruling party's faction's
head said, "I do not suspect anyone. It is the work of law enforcers.
I would not like Oskanian be considered a criminal as it will appear
that we have worked with a criminal for ten years and if everything
is in the way Oskanian claims, they will apologize to him," he said.
