Former Candidate Haroutyunyan: “They were tapping my phone calls”
14:06, February 9, 2013
When asked if pressures brought to bear played any factor in his
decision to pull out the presidential race, Aram Haroutyunyan stated
that indeed pressure had been directed against him and those who
attempted to assist him.
`They were actually indirect pressures. My telephone conversations
were being tapped. People didn’t want to meet me because they had been
subtly pressured to ddo so. Naturally, I understood what was going
on,’ stated the now former candidate.
Haroutyunyan promised to remain politically active despite withdrawing
his candidacy.
He argued that it would have been preferable if the other candidates
had rallied around him in order to wage a more effective struggle.
