We were informed yesterday evening that the regional authorities of Syunik had put obstacles in the way of Zaruhi Postanjyan, an Armenian National Assembly member, who had left for Goris to establish a pre-election headquarters for the Heritage Party in the region of Syunik, and of activists of the Heritage Party Goris office.
Thus, citizens, who had provided premises to establish a Heritage Party headquarters in Goris, asked to give the keys of the premises back to them after some pressure from the authorities and took off the Heritage Party logo, pinned up on the headquarters.
It is obvious that the mentioned citizens could have had no other reasons for not providing the premises, but the interference by the authorities. Zaruhi Postanjyan called Suren Khachatryan, the governor of Syunik included in the list of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), to get an explanation, but the governor, instead of giving explanation, swore at the National Assembly member.
The Heritage Party strongly condemns the behavior of the governor of Syunik, as well as draws the attention of the Central Electoral Commission (CEC) and the law-enforcement bodies to the above-mentioned fact and demands to guarantee equal pre-election conditions of competition for all political forces.
