YEREVAN, APRIL 12, ARMENPRESS: The Republican Party of Armenia was
the first political party to condemn two successive attacks on offices
of the Prosperous Armenia party today morning. The Prosperous Armenia
of a millionaire businessman Gagik Tsarukian, is tipped, by the way,
to be the leading challenger to the ruling Republican Party in the
May parliamentary elections.
A statement by the Republican Party condemned the attacks as 'mean
and base moves directed against all political forces of the country
and its people."
"Only those who are not able to conduct fair and just political
struggle resort to such low means and are ready to destabilize the
situation making no difference between the means,' the statement said.
The party's statement calls on all parties to use every occasion of
cooperation for the sake of holding clean elections on May 12.
Two offices of the Prosperous Armenia were ripped through by
explosions in the early hours today morning. No one was injured in the
blasts. President Robert Kocharian ordered law enforcement agencies
to swiftly investigate the incident.
Prosperous Armenia was founded in 2005 by wealthy businessman Gagik
Tsarukian . Tensions between the two rival parties have increased in
recent days, with scuffles reported between campaigning activists.
The Prosperous Armenia also condemned the attacks against its offices
saying in a statement that this crime is against all Armenians. The
party called on law-enforcers to take every possible action to detect
the culprits and hold them accountable.
