PanARMENIAN.Net – The National Security Council discontinued criminal persecution against Vartan Oskanian after the ex-foreign minister admitted to putting 
the money donated by American philanthropist Jon Hunstman to Civilitas foundation to personal use, considering it his own share in a deal.
Oskanian father refunded the taxable amount from $250.795,26 totaling around $50 000 to the state, also transferring the donation of $1,086 million plus the interest payment to Civilitas foundation.
Considering Oskanian’s confession and the refunded sum, it was ruled to requalify the money-laundering accusation into large-scale tax evasion, with the case discontinued.
