Leader of the "Heritage" Party Raffi Hovhannisyan is not going to leave
Armenia forever. The rumors started after Raffi Hovhannisyan first
refused form the chairmanship of the parliamentary faction, yielded
his places in the Armenian delegations to PACE and NATO to Zaruhi
Postanjyan and Styopa Safaryan, and disagreed with the decision of
the Party's Board on the elections to the Yerevan City Council. Raffi
Hovhannisyan is assured that the Party was to participate in the
elections of May 31.
Speaking about the Armenian-Turkish relations, Raffi Hovhannisyan said:
"It's their affair. Let them open if they want so. I think the Armenian
people have enough self-confidence to continue their struggle towards
solution of national issues, towards democracy and civil society even
under the regime of open borders. But we should not allow the opening
of the border to be used for extra concessions. They have closed the
border, and now let them think whether to open it or not."
