Armenian National Congress coordinator Levon Zurabyan labeled reports that ANC leader, Armenia’s first President Levon Ter-Petrosyan was involved in Iranian drug traffic as absurd.

“I hear about it for the first time,” Zurabyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

Aftenposten Norwegian newspaper published a WikiLeaks cable regarding the Iranian drug traffic allegedly going though South Caucasus to Russia and Europe.

According to the cable, officials from the U.S. embassy in Baku supposed that “Armenian political and government officials, including former President Tar-Petrosyan, were personally profiting from this trade.”
