Leader of the Christian-Democratic Renaissance party Sos Gimishyan
says he has no problems with Armenia's first President and leader of
the opposition Armenian National Congress (HAK) Levon Ter-Petrosyan.
"I am still a HAK member and I do hope that the situation will better
in our country," Mr Gimishyan told A1+.
He named the reasons why the four parties affiliated with the
opposition blog, including the Christian-Democratic Renaissance party,
refused to be included on the HAK's electoral list.
"I wish the parties reached a consensus over the electoral list. I
did everything to make the President [Levon Ter-Petrosyan] happy but
his party - the Pan-Armenian National Movement (HHSh) torpedoed the
agreement. As a result, we were left out of the list," he said.
"Then we drafted a document expressing our approval of the principle
and sent it to the President. as there was no agreement between the
parties, we were waiting for the President to make the electoral list.
The political council was to convene a sitting on Wednesday but it
was held on Tuesday. I was in Georgia at that time and could not
participate at the meeting. Later they did not tell me anything about
the issue," said Sos Gimishyan.
