ArmInfo.Parliament Deputy Speaker Alen Simonyan believes that the head of the European People's Party Donald Tusk should be more restrained and not interfere in the affairs of the Armenian people. Simonyan stated this on June 18 in an interview with reporters, commenting on Tusk's statement yesterday that the EPP is concerned about the many cases of democratic retreat in Armenia. True, on Twitter, the source cited by the media does not have this statement.
According to Simonyan, earlier Tusk made similar statements regarding Georgia and Ukraine. <The fact is that Donald Tusk looks at Armenia with Serzh Sargsyan's eyes, but this is the wrong position. The fact is that Serzh Sargsyan's eyes are torn from reality. These are the eyes of a person who has long since departed from the people of Armenia, from the country as a whole, this opinion has nothing to do with reality>, Simonyan emphasized.
<I do not think that the position of the head of an inter-party organization is a reaction of international agencies. The assessment of the representatives of international structures regarding Armenia is quite positive. So, for example, the head of the Venice Commission spoke very positively about the processes taking place in Armenia>, the deputy Speaker concluded.
