An attack on a former foreign minister of Armenia is threatening to shut down one of the country's most active and innovative non-profit organizations.
Vartan Oskanian, a U.S.-educated Armenian who served as foreign minister from 1998 to 2008, stands accused of money laundering for a donation he accepted from American businessman and philanthropist Jon Hunstman Sr., father of the former U.S. presidential candidate.
Oskanian is widely expected to challenge the incumbent president Serge Sargsyan, whose first term in office expires early next year.
