The reaction to the U.S. Secretariat report on the strategy of
struggle against drugs is acquiring new forms. On March 24 the leader
of the National Unity Artashes Geghamyan again raised this issue. He
said that instead of assuming the role of a translator and explaining
that the report was translated with mistakes, he should have issued a
protest note to the United States, for ` the mentioning of Armenian
government officials is a blow to the national dignity.’ According to
Geghamyan, however, something different happened. Putting together the
American report, the information of the Russian border guards about
the prevention of transit of drugs on the Iran-Armenia border and the
silence of tax and customs services, Geghamyan concludes, `If all this
information was bottled up, logically government officials are
engaged, who can make this silent. And we know who is almighty.’

Another oppositionist, Victor Dallakyan said the parliamentary
majority was reluctant to set up a provisional committee on the
legitimacy of constitutional referendum in 2005, and concluded that
`they are engaged in electoral fraud.’
