Vahan Babayan, an MP of the Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP), has
responded to the statements Khosrov Harutyunyan, an MP of the ruling
Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), made in an interview with the
Aravot newspaper.
In his interview, Kh. Harutyunyan was critical of Naira Zohrabyan,
Secretary of the PAP parliamentary group, who spoke of the group's
non-participation in the parliamentary debate on Armenia's state
budget.
`The PAP is not yet a full-fledged party, and I do not want any splits
within it. The PAP is critical of all the governments Armenia has had
since 2008. However, the Control Chamber's reports say that the
ministries headed by PAP members were the most corrupt and full of
abusive practices - ministries of urban development, health and social
affairs,' Harutyunyan said in his interview.
`Khosrov Harutyunyan is the world's only premier that was critical of
his own program under Levon Ter-Petrosyan's presidency. He was
Armenia's only premier to resign because he grossly violated human and
political ethics,' Babayan's statement says.
`Oskanian was critical and was understood. Oskanian was not [part of
the coalition government], but you joined his criticism. Whom are you
putting down as a fool? How can you speak of failed policy and
responsibility when you held the key posts?' said Harutyunyan.
Kh. Harutyunyan is not a person that has the right to publicly voice
his opinion of the PAP, Babayan said. To substantiate, he referred to
a letter Kh. Harutyunyan wrote years ago.
According to Babayan, that letter was addressed to the then Prosecutor
General of Armenia V. Nazaryan. That letter contained information
against the Karabakh movement and its active members.
`That letter was written at when the Armenian people took to the
streets and the best sons of the people went to defend the homeland,'
Babayan said.
Summing up, he said that a couple of such episodes in an individual's
life are enough to `sink into oblivion.'
Talking to Tert.am, Kh. Harutyunyan said that he has no idea of any
letter. `I have just heard about it from you for the first time.'
