“Strong Armenia” party issued a statement.

“The imprisoning of Davit Ghazinyan, a member of the board of the “Strong Armenia” party and a candidate for parliament, is a common political persecution.

Investigative bodies, the prosecutor’s office and the courts have become a tool to punish and silence the opposition by the hands of this government. This is an attempt to finally destroy democracy in the country.

We will not tolerate it, and we will fight to the end with all the power and determination of the law.”
