ARMENIAN MP’s TRIP TO UKRAINE CANCELED
Armenian National Assembly member Shavarsh Kocharyan was to take part in
Ukraine’s presidential elections held Sunday as an observer. However, at
the last moment, when a flight reservation had already been made, he was
told about his business trip cancellation by the parliament
administration “because of lack of money”.
Shavarsh Kocharyan is explaining this otherwise. He says he would speak
about ballot fraud and other election irregularities prompting not only
Armenian authorities’ utter displeasure but also Russian president
Vladimir Putin’s.
