ArmInfo. The meeting of the leaders of the governmental and opposition
parties initiated by the leader of the Heritage party Raffi Hovannisian
will not take place.
The member of the Board of heritage, MP Vardan Khachatryan said in
an interview to ArmInfo that the meeting was to take place at the
Armenian Center for National and International Studies but all the
leaders had indirectly refused to take part in it. "Their key argument
is that the invitation should not have been sent in the form of an open
letter. But I would like to point out that our initiative reflects the
public order and can bring the sides closer to one another. Should
any one of them agree to meet we are ready to create all necessary
conditions for such a meeting," Khachatryan said.
Asked why all the leaders refused to take part in the meeting,
Khachatryan said: "Perhaps, our approach was different from the
positions of the other forces. I hope that the challenges our country
is facing now will urge the other political players to change their
stance."
To remind, on May 19 the leader of Heritage party Raffi Hovannisian
appeared with an open letter urging the leader of the Republican
Party of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan, the leader of the Prosperous Armenia
party Gagik Tsarukyan, the member of the Supreme Body of ARFD Armen
Rustamyan, the leader of the Orinats Yerkir party Artur Bagdassaryan
and the first president of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrossyan to meet on
May 20 evening in order to search for ways out of the present internal
political crisis.
