the authorities in Armenia and will cooperate with all the political
forces who are ready to fight for the restoration of constitutional
law and legitimate authorities," Dallakyan said.

of parliament until the ruling coalition accepts the opposition's
demands to conduct a referendum of confidence in the authorities.
