HEATED OFFSHORE DEBATES IN ARMENIAN PARLIAMENT
June 12, 2013 | 17:11
YEREVAN. - The offshore scandal involving Armenian PM Tigran Sargsyan
was one of the key issues discussed during the Wednesday debate
in parliament.
The opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) bloc offered to set
up a commission to discuss media reports about an offshore company
registered in the name of Tigran Sargsyan.
In response to PM's claims that the reports are spread to discredit
him, head of ANC faction Levon Zurabyan asked to explain how $350,000
could appear on the account of a "fake company."
However, PM did not accept the offer, noting that setting up a
commission will prevent lawmakers from discussing other important
issues.
Hetq.am website has recently published an article telling about an
offshore company set up by PM Tigran Sargsyan, Archbishop Navasard
Kchoyan and others. Premier Sargsyan has already filed a petition to
the prosecutor's office.
