ANDRANIK MARGARIAN
"The negotiations for Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement are still
on and the process is not locked in dead end. None of the parties is
interested in war," RA PM Andranik Margarian said.
He said that Republican Party of Armenia will participate in the
parliamentary elections independently, though he didn't exclude that
they may unite with a political force in a faction. As for his future
position, Mr. Margarian said that it will be defined only after the
elections, taking into account the votes his party received.
In response to the question about Artashes Tumanian's resignation, RA
PM said that he learnt about that from the newspapers and added that
the coalition didn't demand resignation from him. "Creation of a party
should not be conditioned by its leader's position. The party
construction process should be based on an ideology, " he stated.
Mr. Margarian express content with the construction projects carried
out in the center of Yerevan. As for the issue of A1+ TV, Margarian
said that the Government has kept its promise and allocated territory
for the TV, A1+ TV should only agree with it.
RA PM informed that RA Culture Minister has responded the letter of
"Heritage" party and in case the party members aren't satisfied with
the response, Raffi Hovhannisian may apply to the court.
In connection with the increase in price for Russian gas, Margarian
said that he will give detailed answers to the questions only after
the negotiations are completed.
As for the amendments to the law "On energetics," Margarian said that
no confrontation is observed at the parliament concerning the law. He
said that some of the deputies expressed certain concerns about the
amendments and they still have time to make suggestions to the
issue. He added that the draft law will be included in the agenda of
the parliament during the coming four days.
It's worth mentioning that the draft law creates legislative grounds
for using the sources from non-governmental sector for construction of
a new NPP.
