Are you aware of the circumstances of the murder of the first speaker
of the NK Supreme Soviet Arthur Mkrtichyan, the reporters asked Arman
Melikyan, the ex-foreign minister of NKR, on January 22 at the Pastark
club, noting that some Armenian officials who used to be in Karabakh in
those years are rumored to be related to that mysterious assassination.
Arman Melikyan said it is a sensitive issue. According to him, he
admired Arthur Mkrtichyan whom he had met before the Karabakh movement
when Arthur Mkrtichyan was the director of the museum in Hadrut, and
his election as speaker of the Supreme Soviet of NKR was not visible
yet. Arman Melikyan says his meeting with Arthur Mkrtichyan deeply
impressed him. Arman Melikyan thinks a lot of circumstances of the
assassination and the real motives will become known eventually,
maybe after a change of generation, because the revelation of not
only Arthur Mkrtichyan’s assassination but also other assassinations
of those years is highly important to the society.
"Murders, economic or political, the representatives of the
intelligentsia were murdered, whose death has not been explained
legally and politically. We must discover the truth about such
issues. Now, however, I do not know the truth," Arman Melikyan says.
