Prosperous Armenia Party: Election campaign in Armenia is turning  into open political revenge by RA premier 

ArmInfo.  The election campaign in Armenia is turning into open political revenge on the part of RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. This was written by Iveta Tonoyan, press secretary of the Prosperous Armenia Party, on her Facebook page.

"Since early this morning, masked men, officers of the National  Security Service, have been breaking into the apartments and offices  of the Prosperous Armenia Party's parliamentary candidates. Following  Nikol Pashinyan's statement, Andranik Tevanyan was already charged  yesterday, and today, masked men are already conducting searches in  his office. They also broke into the home of Prosperous Armenia Party  candidate Martun Grigoryan early this morning. It's clear that after  the large and influential rallies held yesterday in Gyumri, the  authorities have found themselves in political chaos. The best proof  of this is Nikol Pashinyan's behavior: early this morning, still  sleepy, he gave a press conference and made alarming statements.  Pashinyan's erratic behavior, consisting exclusively of unfounded  accusations and personal insults, speaks to one thing: the  authorities are in a panic.

It's clear that the ruling Civil Contract Party, led by Nikol  Pashinyan, is the only one that hasn't presented any support during  the entire campaign. "[The Prosperous Armenia Party] is guided by a  style of denigrating political opponents using street language,"  noted Iveta Tonoyan.

She recalled that the Prosperous Armenia Party has a long political  history. Throughout this time, the activities of party chairman Gagik  Tsarukyan have always been aimed at protecting the interests of the  state, the homeland, and the people. The Prosperous Armenia Party has  memoranda of cooperation with a number of political forces abroad,  including the European Conservatives and Reformists, as well as the  Russian party United Russia. Several years ago, Gagik Tsarukyan  brought about three dozen European parliamentarians to Armenia and  Artsakh to demonstrate to the international community that Artsakh  exists, that people live there, and that it is not just a "war zone."

"Cooperation with various political forces has always served one  goal: enhancing Armenia's prestige on international platforms and  protecting Armenian interests. We unequivocally state that no  repression, persecution, or political harassment can influence our  political course. We have always defended and will continue to defend  Armenian interests and the real state interests of the Republic of  Armenia. We assess what is happening as a targeted and coordinated  attack on opposition political forces and parliamentary candidates at  the most heated stage of the electoral process. We also draw the  attention of international organizations, officials carrying out  their diplomatic missions in our country, and observers to these  illegal processes. If you do not see, or do not allow yourself to  see, these shameful realities, when Nikol Pashinyan even threatens  opposition leaders with physical violence, then you are seeing  nothing. I am attaching a video recording of the meetings that took  place yesterday in the Shirak region, so that it is clear what led  Nikol Pashinyan to his mental breakdown," the party's press secretary  emphasized.
