Razmik Zohrabyan, member of the Republican Party of Armenia, advisor
to the RA Prime Minister, called Paruyr Hayrikyan, leader of the
Union for Self-Determination, a vicious man and a USA spy.

In reply to this offence, Mr. Hayrikyan said that the story has its
background. "Last year we celebrated the 40th anniversary of the
National United Party, and I had the last tete-a-tete meeting with
Prime Minister Mr. Margaryan. At first Andranik Margaryan agreed to
celebrate the party’s anniversary but later he told Manuk Topuzyan,
one of our friends, there is no need to celebrate the anniversaries
of all parties.

Nevertheless, Andranik Margaryan admitted that the National United
Party is the very Union for Self-Determination. "

The anthems of the two parties under question were also the
same. Margaryan had to admit this fact as Haykaz Khachatryan, founder
of the National United Party noted that National United Party had
turned to the Union for Self-Determination

Alongside with acute criticism, Mr. Hayrikyan thanked the Republicans,
"for their former support and service to him. The same is true about
Razmik Zohrabyan. He obeyed Azat Arshakyan and carried out his orders,
that’s to say, he implemented my indirect orders. "

In respond to Razmik Zohrabyan’s accusations, Mr. Zohrabyan has
written 9-page answer. "Zohrabyan has done nothing since he returned
to Armenian in 1984. He didn’t even attempt to protect his superiors
as he was afraid of the acting regime. "

Over the past years the Republicans tried to eradicate the Union for
Self-Determination. Andranik Margaryan assigned the marzpets not to
secure any votes for the Union for Self-Determination. Their main
objective is to come to power. Let them do it in decent way and not
via defaming others.
