Hraparak writes it has received a letter from ex-interior minister of
Armenia Vano Siradeghyan in which the latter refuted the news about
his death.
Chief editor of the paper says, `It is one of the unique cases when
the refutation of our information makes us only happy.'
In the letter to the chief editor of the paper Siradeghyan called not
to underestimate him and stressed that he is able to let his relatives
know in case something happens to him. `I truly understand the benefit
of the paper, its temptation but you have made me break the silence.
The reproach contained in the letter is addressed to you, the
explanation given in it to my friends. In general, I am trying to
isolate myself from the events taking place in Armenia, especially
from the so-called political ones. To the extent that I have not even
watched Armenian TV channels for already 12 years,' the paper quoted
Siradeghyan's letter.
The ex-minister and then influential figure also referred to the
signature gathering and wanted to write a letter entitled `Stop it.'
`In the morning I tore the paper realizing that such response will not
be fair toward my friends but will be a demonstration of a tough and
ungrateful stance toward each person signed. And the thought of the
initiative being humiliating for me became of no significance. As to
what I am thinking about return - eight years ago I was thinking one
thing, now I do not think at all. In any case I will return to
Armenia, but I hope I will not see the political, social, moral
collapses our country has undergone during my absence. You will not
believe but I have taken care to bring my `contacts' with Yerevan to a
minimum.'
