PanARMENIAN.Net – Deputy Chairman of ruling Republican Party of Armenia
(RPA) Razmik Zohrabyan refuted media reports regarding pressure piled
by government on Prosperous Armenia coalition party given recent
arrests of several party members.
“These arrests have no political background,” Zohrabyan said adding
that RPA and Prosperous Armenia Party remain coalition partners.

drug trafficking, including head of the party’s Jermuk division
Armen Hovhannisyan.

employee Artur Ghazaryan, Prosperous Armenia party’s press service
