Gor Tamazyan, the leader of the One Nation coalition, stated today that Satanist Bayandur Poghosyan had insulted him and slandered through a page on Facebook Anti-One Nation. Bayandur Poghosyan commented on Tamazyan’s statement during a conversation with www.aravot.am, “Let me say with regard to this that an investigation has been launched and two court sessions have taken place and he doesn’t have the right to accuse anyone, until the court makes a ruling.”
Responding to Tamazyan’s claim that the page Anti-One Nation had been opened and administered by the Satanist and it had to be closed, Poghosyan said, “They have no right to make any claims in that regard. I am a junior administrator on that page and as for who the founder is, I don’t know, since the statements of the administration are anonymous. I couldn’t have created that page for a simple reason – it was created in December 2010 and I joined it in September 2011. I talked about that during the court session too.”
Regarding the other administrator of Anti-One Nation, Sevak Kirakosyan, who, according to Gor Tamazyan, had slandered the Armenian Apostolic Church, had assessed its activities as anti-national, Poghosyan said, “First of all, Gor draws conclusions – Sevak Kirakosyan hasn’t made a statement insulting the Armenian Apostolic Church. He generally criticized clericalism, talked about the fact that instead of promoting the true faith or the true church, Gor defends the clergy, which is engaged in different kinds of misuse and, so to say, casts a shadow over the faith. Sevak Kirakosyan talked about facts showing different drawbacks of the clergy and it cannot be perceived as insulting the church, if, certainly, the church doesn’t think that, say, people who persecuted Movses Khorenatsi did the right thing. I don’t think that any follower of the Armenian Apostolic Church might express such an opinion. I don’t want to talk about the followers of the Armenian Apostolic Church, because I am not one, but I also don’t think that they would justify people who persecuted Mesrop Mashtots, Grigor Narekatsi, Ghazar Parpetsi, Komitas and other intellectuals and who abused power carrying out persecutions.
