Even if Vartan Oskanian Changes his Name, this doesn’t Mean He isn’t Him: Nikol Pashinyan

“Is it April 1 today? It seemed to me, it’s April Fool’s day today,” Nikol Pashinyan, NA MP, told reporters today, reflecting to the question how he referred Vartan Oskanian’s statement that March 1 case will be included in the agenda of the political party to be founded by him.

He urged not to forget who is who. According to N.Pashinyan, even if Vartan Oskanian changes his first and last names, this doesn’t mean—he isn’t Vartan Oskanian, “Who was issuing death sentences at Baghramyan 26 1 March, 2008.”

“When I say nobody and nothing is forgotten, this doesn’t mean Vartan Oskanian, or Artur Baghdasaryan, or Serzh Sargsyan, or Tigran Torosyan, or Hovik Abrahamyan, or Robert Kocharyan, or Samvel Aleksanyan, or Gagik Tsarukyan, or ARF members, nobody is forgotten, and I exclude any form of cooperation with March 1 criminals and their servers for myself. I directly classify Oskanian both in the first and in the second group, and my attitude towards this hasn’t changed. Nobody and nothing is forgotten, and no one should hope, he/she shouldn’t be in that nobody,” N.Pashinyan stated.
