Aravot.am asked RPA Spokesman, Vice-Speaker of the National Assembly, Edward Sharmazanov, about the clash happened in Artashat which is associated with the names Arayik Grigoryan and Alik Sargsyan, candidates nominated in Ararat region by the RPA rating procedure. “Alik Sargsyan denied that the conflict has a political motive,” said the RPA Spokesman. To our observation that recently more similar incidents have happened, Eduard Sharmazanov replied, “Anyway, such things are not conditioned by political motives. I think that if there is a problem, the police and the law enforcements should deal with it. In other words, I do not see a need for interpretation, and if there is a matter of interpretation, it should be done by the law enforcements.” Apropos, the police news department has reported the NewsBook that one of the participants in the dispute was detained and the dispute was an everyday issue.
