ANC coordinator divulges Armenian FM's secrets?September 9, 2011 - 21:03 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - In 2008, Armenian Foreign Minister released a forged address of the French President, claiming Nicolas Sarkozy congratulated Serzh Sargsyan on election to presidency, Armenian National Congress (ANC) opposition bloc coordinator said. As Levon Zurabyan stated at ANC rally in Yerevan, Sarkozy was unwilling to congratulate Sargsyan. “Current Foreign Minister, then an Armenian Ambassador to France, used his connections to procure a congratulation letter template. The letter was released without France's agreement, with current Minister hoping Paris won't voice a protest to avoid a scandal,” he said. “WikiLeaks cables prove that Sargsyan wouldn't have won in fair election; however, according to the website, the court decision, announcing 2008 presidential election to be legal, was taken under severe pressure from presidential administration,” Zurabyan noted.
