    MP from Prosperous Armenia Party Naira Zohrabyan responded to Heritage
    Party's Deputy Chairman Ruben Hakobyan's announcement that if the
    leaders of the 4 political forces will not sign the agreement of
    a joint structure for coordinating the elections, then they might
    withdraw their signature.

    "We are a disciplined party and if Vardan Oskanyan signed the
    agreement it means he had the authorization of PAP leader Gagik
    Tsarukyan. If this is only an excuse for the given party to not fulfill
    responsibilities then I will advise not to make incomprehensible
    announcements. We all know the real motivation for such behavior,"
    Naira Zohrabyan mentioned.

    Earlier Armenian News-NEWS.am had informed that, Armenian National
    Congress (ANC), Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP), ARF Dashnaktsutyun and
    Heritage Party signed an agreement on creating a joint headquarter for
    coordinating and controlling elections. Deputy Chairman of Republican
    Party of Armenia Galust Sahakyan did not sign the agreement.

    To remind, during the meeting on Wednesday Deputy Chairman of Heritage
    Party Ruben Hakobyan made a statement. He demanded that the leaders of
    the political forces who agreed to join the joint election headquarter
    sign the agreement. Besides that he proposed to create a commission or
    working group which will control the work of charitable foundations
    which hand out bribes. Heritage threatened to leave the structure if
    their two demands were not fulfilled.

    Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) is a political power included in the
    ruling coalition.

    Founded by Armenian biggest businessman Gagik Tsarukyan, the party
    debuted in 2007 Armenian parliamentary elections, winning 29 seats
    in 131-seat Armenia's National Assembly.

    The proportional list of the party includes 165 names. PAP has also
    nominated MP candidates with the majority election system. Prosperous
    Armenia Party's election campaign slogan is: "Believe, trust, demand!"

    Eight political parties and one block have presented their nominations
    - Republican Party of Armenian, Prosperous Armenia Party, Orinats
    Yerkir, opposition Armenian National Congress, opposition Heritage
    Party, ARF Dashnaktsutyun, the Communist Party of Armenia, Democratic
    Party of Armenia and United Armenians Party.

    For entering the National Assembly, parties must poll over 5% of votes,
    while blocks - over 7%.

    The election campaign will be held till May 5 - the day prior to
    elections when campaigning is banned. The parliamentary elections
    will be held from 8 am to 8 pm on May 6, 2012.
