In the course of his visit to Iran, former RA President Robert Kocharyan made no statements, first president’s office head Viktor Soghomonyan told NEWS.am. Kocharyan visited Tehran with his spouse at the invitation of the Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki on January 20-21. Soghomonyan also underlined that information on visit details spread by Iranian media is untrue.

According to Soghomonyan, former RA president made no statements in the course of friendly and informal visit. “Most likely, hullabaloo in the press is a result of misunderstanding or misinterpretation,” he said.
