There will be changes, very soon we will have a strong Armenia, Samvel Karapetyan, leader of the “Strong Armenia” party, said this in the courtroom.

“Lawyer Vardevanyan presented all the illegalities that exist in these accusations, so I have nothing to add in that regard. I just want to record that all the illegalities of our legal system, I am sure, are directed against me, against all the members of our team, in order to try to stop the dream of our people to have a strong Armenia. But I assure you, they will not succeed, everything is moving forward. There will be changes, very soon we will have a strong Armenia,” said Samvel Karapetyan.

To remind, the issue of Samvel Karapetyan’s restraining order is being examined in the court today.

Karapetyan’s defense attorney Aram Vardevanyan lobbied to abolish the house arrest applied to him, proposing to increase the amount of bail already set. According to the lawyer, Karapetyan is ready to pay about 400 million drams in addition to 4 billion drams, noting that no violations have been recorded in the last 10 months.

It should be noted that, parallel to the court session, Karapetyan’s supporters are holding an action in the court yard, demanding his release.
