ArmInfo. The wiretapping and the publication of a telephone conversation between the heads of the National Security Service and the Special Investigative Service is a state treason directed against the Director of the National Security Service Artur Vanetsyan. This was stated in an interview to a number of mass media by the leader of the "Tsarukyan" bloc, MP, businessman Gagik Tsarukyan.
According to Tsarukyan, he got rich by fair means, never used his political activities for enrichment.
He also denied that he and the ''Prosperous Armenia'' Party headed by him have any relation with former President Robert Kocharyan and the Republican Party.
"Everyone realizes that Vanetsyan is doing everything right, professionally, so they are doing this," Tsarukyan said. Referring to the media speculation that Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's statement that some coalition partners are playing a separate game with the Republican Party against the Revolution is addressed to him, Tsarukyan said: "First, Pashinyan has enough courage to speak directly. Secondly, I am a very powerful and rich man, I lead a powerful force, I do not respond to hints, when I will be told directly I will respond. But our cooperation with Pashinyan continues in a natural way, we are in solidarity and cooperate in the fight against lawlessness. The law has equal force for everyone and all those who have violated it should be punished. "All who shot and plundered the people must be arrested," he said, assuring that he never personally committed unlawful acts, and if anyone proves that Tsarukyan is involved in the events of March 1, 2008, he will leave all his property to the people.
