Deputy of “National Unity” group Gagik Kostandian marks in this way
the circumstance that the OEP members awry grounds about his economic
activities.

”Can anybody prove the opposite today that it is possible to supply
goods to the Ministry of Defense without serious contacts or agreement
with first figures”, – Arthur Baghdasarian interpreted in this way the
circumstance that the ”NU” member Gagik Kostandian’s establishment
performs orders of the Ministry of Defense. ”Geghamian speaks against
Serge Sargsian but the member of his fraction supplies goods to the
Ministry led by Serge Sargsian. W tried to find out what goods the MD
“NU” member has supplied. It was found out that it was spoken about
”Gor” LTD the director of which was Gagik Kostandian in 1996-1999
and now his wife fills that post. ”I have inherited that fabric from
my father”, – the deputy affirmed.

“We aren’t engaged in mediation buying a computer from a place and
selling it in another, Mr. Kostandian alludes to Arthur Baghdasarian’s
brother business. But as we know he has already sold his ”Computer
City”. -But we are producers”. According to the ”Gor” company
owner deputy ”That fabric was built in 1988, we have neither bought
it nor taken. We have formed an industry, which has already had
300 workers. We don’t have any debts to the state. We mainly produce
uniforms. We make the fur and fabric into ready-made production. And we
mainly export it to Russia and Iran”. That’s why they didn’t have time
to perform great orders in Armenia. ”There were years when contests
for our army had been declared. We had lack for 1-2 times when there
were honest contests and we won there. We don’t have monopoly but we
are the single producer.”

Gagik Kostandian had declared from the NA pulpit that the information
as if ”NU” was ”indirectly financed and engaged in supplies”
was ”false and old”.

To our question when had they supplied Mr. Kostandian answered; 2
years ago; ”But when I became the member of the opposition we didn’t
allowed for taking part in those contests. And it doesn’t only refer
to the Ministry of Defense but to other contests in which we wanted
to participate legally.”

Buy Gagik Kostandian’s remarks OEP members ”proved once more that they
didn’t deserve those posts which they filled. If they deserved they
would know when we had won those contests and in what conditions. If
the chairman of the commission of Defense, National Security and home
policy doesn’t know such things so neither he nor the NA chairman
filled right posts. If the chairman of the commission wanted to give
right information let him study the facts”.

Gagik Kostandian was ready ”to perform the orders of Ministry of
Defense, Police and private establishments. But they don’t place
orders because he is from the opposition. Never mind. We’ll wait.”
