Sharmazanov’s statement
Speaker of the Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) Eduard Sharmazanov has issued a statement:
"Today, Chairman of the board of the Armenian Pan-National Movement (HHSh) Aram Manukyan made another statement that was incorrect and unethical. He showed who he really was by mentioning that I was a liar when I said that Aram Manukyan had said he hadn't seen such freedom on television in the past 12 years.
Unlike Manukyan, I speak with facts. During a program broadcast by ArmNews TV on March 22, in the last section (12:14-12:22), Aram Manukyan literally said the following: "I had free airtime on ARMENIA TV 12 years ago. This is a good opportunity for me and I am happy for that."
I regret to see that such a person can lower himself to that level and confuse the people."
