TSARUKYAN FREED FROM RUSSIANS

The spokesman for Gagik Tsarukyan, leader of Prosperous Armenia Party,
told the Hraparak Newspaper that Tsarukyan sent out invitations to
all the EU ambassadors and international organizations to attend the
celebration of the 135th anniversary of Ararat Wine Vodka and Brandy
Factory. The diplomatic representatives of France, Great Britain,
Sweden, Bulgaria, Romania, Belarus and Chine will attend the event
together with their spouses.
The notorious ambassador of Russia Kovalenko is not listed among the
ambassadors. The informal Russian explanation was “who goes out for
a drink on Tuesdays?” The official answer was the president of the
Russian Counting Chamber Stepashin is in Armenia and they are busy. On
the other hand, it is known that he was the guest of the head of the
Control Chamber Ishkhan Zakaryan. Apparently, this is a demarche by
the Russian side in response to the meeting of Tsarukyan and Heffern
and the specific attention of the PAP to the West. In answer to the
question whether Oskanian’s issue was brought up during the meeting
with the EU representatives, Iveta Tonoyan said she does not know
the details of the meeting.
