/PanARMENIAN.Net/ July 4's meeting of Writers' Union will focus on
the election of Union Chairman. Recently opinions divided: a number
of writers spoke in support of current Chairman Levon Ananyan,
others criticized Ananyan, while taking sides with his opponent,
poet Razmik Davoyan. A young generation of writers expressed their
views on the last day of election struggle.
"A writer shouldn't busy himself with personal life of Union Chairman
and engage in pre-election struggle. Writer's time should be spent on
his creative work," a young poet Vahe Arsen spoke up. "On the other
hand, all the stir around the elections could serve as a means to
draw society's attention and arise a sound interest to our Union."
According to Vahe Arsen, a person who's already exhausted himself
as a writer and will be capable of conducting administrative work
should be elected as Union Chairman. The poet believes, Levon Ananyan
successfully fulfills his duties as a Chairman. Literature critic
Arkmenik Nikoghosyan and prose writer Mikhael Abajian disagreed.
In his turn, Arkmenik Nikoghosyan said, "Armenia's literature life
is in a deplorable state today. The structure of RA Writers' Union
needs to be changed."
