    TO TAKE OR NOT TO TAKE THE MANDATE

    Rumors that the Heritage leader Raffi Hovhannisyan is possible to
    withdraw his application on resignation are circulated. He may do it
    until September 30. If he does not take the application back by that
    time, it will be considered accepted and the Heritage leader will be
    deprived of his mandate. But, not only rumors are spread on this
    topic, but also the Heritage faction head Stepan Safaryan does not
    rule out such a possibility.

    We deal with a situation either when the Heritage parliamentary
    members are making fun of their leader or former leader, or the
    Heritage leader is making fun of the Armenian citizens making and
    withdrawing applications. But it is unknown what is funny there if
    Raffi is diverting himself. Maybe Raffi thinks that after the laid
    down his mandate the party abolished and it will revive if he
    withdraws it. It is a version but very hypothetic because the mandate
    is not a magic wand with the help of which you may take apart and then
    assemble the party.

    Maybe Raffi Hovhannisyan liked being in the centre of the attention
    and he decided to take back his mandate and after some time to lay it
    again down becoming a `newsmaker' moreover it is harmonious with the
    Armenian modern thinking, in particular, journalistic thinking. But
    the second laying down of the mandate will hardly provide the same
    `newsmakerism' to Raffi Hovhannisyan as the first one. In this case,
    the national joke on a liar is worth remembering who liked to have fun
    of the villagers and regularly alarmed them of wolves' assaults. Every
    time the villagers run to help, they saw that he was just joking. But
    when one day wolves in reality assaulted, there was no one to pay
    attention to his shouting.

    So, the second laying down will not procure the effect of the first
    one. Consequently, Raffi Hovhannisyan had better think why he wants to
    take back the mandate moreover he did not think good when laying it
    down as now he thinks about retaking it. Though what Raffi
    Hovhannisyan himself thinks is not known as always. Stepan Safaryan
    does not rule out taking back the mandate but is his opinion based on
    Raffi Hovhannisyan's moods. It is difficult to say because
    Hovhannisyan continues being mysteriously silent.

    Though, on the other hand, what is going to change in the public life
    after Raffi Hovhannisyan takes back his mandate. Just what changed
    after he laid it down. In other words nothing of course if someone
    does not think to stake or to bet what in the end he will do.
