The National Security Service—the NSS—has spread another lie where it attempted to present me as the organizer of the intrusion into the buildings of the government and the National Assembly [of Armenia] on the night of November 9-10, specifically mentioning the fact that I am a member of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun; former Deputy Minister of Education and Science Bagrat Yesayan wrote this on Facebook.

"This is an attempt to link those incidents to the 17 opposition parties [that demand PM Nikol Pashinyan’s resignation], in my case, particularly with the ARF.

I declare that this is an obvious slander. I was summoned to the NSS to be questioned as a witness; I was not charged and could not be charged with anything.

We will meet in court (…) in connection with this attempt at the incompetent performance of the political order given to the NSS [by Pashinyan]," Yesayan added.
