Leader of opposition Heritage party Raffi Hovannisian excluded a union
with other political forces in support of Armenia's second president
Robert Kocharian.
During a press conference in Yerevan, Hovannisian refuted reports
that a secret meeting of a range of Armenia's political forces was
held to discuss possible support of Kocharian. "I do not trust secret
meetings. If I have a meeting, which is of public interest, I will
announce about it myself," he said.
According to Hovannisian, a union with other political forces for
participation in the upcoming parliamentary election is not on the
party's agenda. At the same time he noted that the party will continue
discussions with other political forces.
Hovannisian stressed the importance of the Civil Meeting to be held by
the party on May 21, during which he expects an open public discussion
on problems faced by the country and ways to tackle them.
"May 21 will mark an important stage for me, as a citizen, since
resolution of the existing problems of Armenian citizens, as well
as legal and domestic political problems will become clear for me,"
concluded Hovannisian.
