ZHAMANAK: ONLY PART OF SUM ALLOCATED BY TSARUKIAN REACHES VOTERS

“Zhamanak” daily writes, citing its sources that Prosperous Armenia
Party (BHK) has already begun compiling its lists for distribution
of election bribes in Yerevan. BHK members responsible for districts
and blocks visit voters and ask them if they will vote for BHK in
the May 5 elections to Yerevan Council of Elders in return for a bribe.

According to the daily, last week one of such executives of BHK went
to house 62 on Mamikoniants Street in Arabkir administrative district
in order to make a list of potential voters. He said that each voter
will receive 5,000 AMD if he/she agrees to vote for BHK.

“By the way, in the past year, during which a third election will be
held soon, BHK leader has declared privately that 40,000 AMD should
be spent on each voter. In other words, only part of the sum allocated
by Gagik Tsarukian reaches the voter,” the daily notes.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
