«More than 100 representatives from various public sectors have come out in support of Gagik Tsarukyan. The text of the statement and the list of individuals who joined the petition are below.»
We express our outrage and concern regarding the unprecedented and unjust pressures initiated against Gagik Tsarukyan.
To subject a person who has created benefits for Armenia throughout his life, provided tens of thousands of jobs, authored hundreds of business projects, initiated countless charitable initiatives, and is at the core of thousands of sports victories to such demonstrative and unjust persecution speaks to a serious legal and moral crisis in our country. The interruption of work at dozens of large enterprises and the gross cessation of the production cycle harm the healthy functioning of these enterprises, leave thousands of employees unemployed, and seriously damage our country's business and investment reputation.
Gagik Tsarukyan has built throughout his life in Armenia, created benefits for our country, and supported sports, culture, education, and the church for decades, preserving Armenian identity in all corners of the world. The ugly, inhumane campaign unleashed against him does not bring honor to any of its participants.
We express our support for Gagik Tsarukyan and demand the immediate cessation of these unprecedented repressive measures. This is a serious violation of human rights and freedoms, another blow to our justice system, and sharply distances us from establishing an atmosphere of public dialogue and solidarity, which Gagik Tsarukyan has constantly spoken about the necessity of.
