Leader of Heritage Party Raffi Hovannisian did not want to talk to

in the presence of journalists?"

"I think, no," Hovannisian said. At the beginning of the meeting
the two parties 'politely' exchanged several phrases: "You seem
upset," the president said. "No, no, I am authorized and competent,"
Hovannisian replied. For his part, he asked about the health of Serzh
Sargsyan and Rita Sargsyan. Afterwards, they started the main talk
behind the closed doors.
