YEREVAN.- Former Armenian presidential candidate who survived an
assassination attempt claims he deserves higher compensation than
$50,000 allocated by the government.
Paruyr Hayrikyan commented on the government's decision and heated
debates in social networks.
`I have not received the money yet. Surprisingly, there are many
ill-wishers. In fact I deserve higher compensation,' he wrote on
Facebook.
This week Armenian government decided to allocate around $50,000 to
the Health Ministry to pay for the costs of ex-presidential contender
Paruyr Hayrikyan's medical treatment to be conducted abroad.
Hayrikyan deems it was a right decision to allocate the amount for his
treatment.
`Of course, I have a plan to compensate for it (I'll speak about it
due time), but it is not my purpose in life,' he wrote.
The decision sparked heated debates in the social networks. It was
noted that Hayrikyan had funds to pay an electoral deposit of 8
million drams and also had a team of numerous supporters who could
help him instead of taking money from the budget. It was underscored
that many children in need of medical treatment abroad do not receive
any assistance.
