Gagik Tsarukyan, leader of the “Prosperous Armenia” party, has once again commented on Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s recent statements, emphasizing that he has no intention of engaging in an exchange of insults and threats.

Speaking with journalists, he elaborated on his work in the field of sports, noting that since 2005 he has been personally funding the development of Armenian sport. According to Tsarukyan, the results of this work have been visible on the international stage for many years.

“Today Armenia wins between 800 and 1,000 medals annually at European, World and Olympic championships, of which 25% are gold. This brings recognition to our people, raises our flag, and our anthem is heard,” said the PAP leader.
