United opposition bloc agrees to talks with Armenia pres
YEREVAN, May 6 (Itar-Tass) - - The united opposition bloc has agreed
to negotiations with the president and prime minister of Armenia.
This is said in a statement made by the opposition alliance Justice
and the party National Unity.
The opposition bloc motivates its step by the resolution of the
Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) as of April
28. It is ready to refrain from holding meetings in Yerevan for ten
days “as a manifestation of good will.”
As opposition forces affirm, “the political crisis has been
aggravating since the last year presidential elections.” They are
convinced that the fulfilment of the PACE resolution “is of decisive
importance for our country.”
Among other things, opposition forces demand that Robert Kocharan
should resign from the post of the president of Armenia and their
arrested activists be released.
As opposition forces warned, “mass events will be resumed if
authorities don’t agree to a compromise.”
