Do Not Involve Arthur Aleksanyan in Your Deceptions. Shame on You, Gevorg Aleksanyan

The father of Olympic champion Arthur Aleksanyan, Gevorg Aleksanyan, has issued a statement regarding news published today by the press.

“It is clear that 'Hraparak' daily cannot attract the reader's attention in any other way than by writing blatantly false articles about the champion, which are also eagerly circulated by other media outlets. I would like to announce that the article is completely disinformation.

I urge you not to exploit Arthur Aleksanyan’s name for your cheap publicity. Arthur is currently training and preparing for the Olympic Games. Do not attempt to involve the athlete, who has repeatedly upheld the honor of the country, in your schemes. Shame on you,” the statement reads.
