CP MP Karen Sarukhanyan writes on her Facebook page: "Dear Compatriots,
Dear people of Gyumri,
I will try to present as briefly as possible what happened during this time around my person, I am ready to answer the rest of the questions publicly in any format.
2023 in December, when the "Civil Agreement" party broke the memorandum with the "Balasanyan Alliance" (I was against the breaking of the memorandum, having my reasons),
In our team, discussions about a possible candidate for the mayor began. As a result of intra-team discussions, there was no consensus on who will be the candidate for the future mayor of the "Civil Agreement" party.
As a result, the party management decided to form a regional organization of CPC in Gyumri and according to our approach, the president of the regional organization will be considered as the leader of the local team and will lead our pre-election list.
CPC Gyumri TC was formed and I was elected president.
Those "mayors" who did not participate in the formation of Gyumri TC started a daily campaign against the legitimately formed TC and the President. of "Balasanyan Alliance".
after the resignations, when a management crisis arose in Gyumri and it became clear that we would go to extraordinary elections, RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan nominated me and supported my candidacy as a candidate for the mayor in the upcoming local government elections in Gyumri, if possible to be appointed as the mayor's MP and to lead the pre-election list in future elections.
I accepted the Prime Minister's proposal, there was an official announcement about it, the news media also wrote.
But the same persons who were always talking behind the walls as if they were the CP candidate, having certain patronage, friendship and personal connections with some people, continued the campaign against me, trying to do everything to blacken my name and create a situation where it would be subject to change. the candidate.
All of that was done very clearly, systematically, with special articles written in a light hand by some bloggers, and by comment writers with fake pages, as if Karen Sarukhanyan is a drug addict.
Trying to mature that thesis, under some circumstances, my uncle's son and his friend were detained, and drugs were allegedly found in their possession.
What was discovered does not even represent an administrative offense, but the organizers needed all that to raise a public wave around my person.
Dear people of Gyumri,
During all that time, I was busy with the process of distributing the salaries of the employees under the authority of the Gyumri municipality, ensuring the smooth implementation of the city's utility works, but some adventurers, completely ignoring the governance crisis created in the city, continued their dirty work aimed at discrediting the candidate proposed by the prime minister. the case.
Dear people of Gyumri,
Let me inform you that during the campaign that crossed all the lines of information, I have publicly said several times that I am ready to take any test to prove that I am not involved in such things, and those defaming my name are doing it in a specially immoral scenario to create a a situation where the candidate is allegedly discredited and there is a need to change the candidate.
I was born and raised in Gyumri, I have well-known and respected parents in the city, great nationality, good friends and relatives, everyone knows me well, and those who know me will prove that I have always been and continue to condemn such vicious phenomena.
At that stage, when the discussions about the Gyumri Local Government elections and the candidate were the most extensive, detaining my relatives and not presenting any serious justification was condemned by me at the meeting of the "Civil Contract" party board and when the idea was raised that I was ready for such a test. to pass, I definitely stated that I am ready to pass any test, because I have nothing to think about.
Since the closed session of the party board has revealed lies about me, information that has no basis in reality, then I reserve the right to present the whole reality.
Dear people of Gyumri,
I am attaching the result of the test, with which I present data on 20 substances, 19 of which are missing for me, and 1 - barbiturates, can be found in many people who sometimes use corvalol or valocardin for good sleep or as a sedative. because in their composition there is a substance from the series of barbiturates, phenobarbital.
As an example, let me say that the police, when they analyze the presence of drugs, determine only 3 substances:
● methamphetamine (crystal)
●marijuana (plan, anasha, hashish, hashish oil)
Opiates (black, heroin, morphine, codeine)
But one thing is clear, since 19 materials are negative, 1 is positive and the clear justification should not allow me to be discredited by an inhuman step.
The unethical lies spread by some oppositionists, self-proclaimed "mayors", devils with the face of a saint dressed in black robes, and news media doing orders do not correspond to reality.
Let me say more that any laboratory cannot do such a test with this opening, this requires a highly professional approach, I'm sure the doctors will confirm.
And if after this there will be people who, for example, question the data of my research, saying that it does not correspond to reality, I can provide them with a sample at any time, let them check it themselves.
Live in peace, God bless us all.
