ZARUHI POSTANJYAN'S QUESTION EUROPE'S ANSWER TO ARMENIA'S DECISION IN FAVOR OF CUSTOMS UNION - OPPOSITIONIST
16:39 08.10.13
The opposition political figure Gurgen Yeghiazaryan does not reproach
Zaruhi Postanjyan, a Heritage parliamentary group member, for putting
a question about "gambling away" 70 million Euros at a casino to
Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan at the Parliamentary Assembly of
the Council of Europe (PACE).
According to him, that question was Europe's answer to Armenia's
decision to join the Customs Union.
"She only said in public what had been in circulation for ten years.
Is it anything new for us that there are casinos and there is Serzh
Sargsyan? Only the amount is up," Yeghiazaryan told journalists
on Tuesday.
Elaborating on the subject, he said that it was Heritage party Chairman
Raffi Hovannisian that was praising Serzh Sargsyan.
"Zahuhi Postanjyan did not say anything new," Yeghiazaryan said.
He wants to know why mass media focused on the part of Postanjyan's
question about "the gambling," without dwelling on her accusations of
"organized crime" against President Serzh Sargsyan. "She accused him
of being a crime kingpin who stole votes," he said.
"In fact, it was Europe's answer to Armenia's decision to join the
Customs Union. That question was expected to be raised in Europe,"
Yeghiazaryan said.
As to whether Postanjyan should be sued, he said, "If they are going
to sue Zohrabyan, they should begin with her predecessors."
