The press conference of the delegation to Brussels led by Hovik
Abrahamyan scheduled on January 14 was cancelled. The NA explained the
cancellation by technical issues whereas the leader of the RPA
parliamentary Galust Sahakyan told yerkir.am, ~SWe think Hovik
Abrahamyan will speak about the results. There cannot be other reasons
because the visit was a high-level one one with qualitative and
political indices.~T
The impression from Galust Sahakyan~Rs answer is, ~SLet Hovik Abrahamyan
get away with it himself.~T Or something like this. Since the National
Assembly had planned a visit but later postponed it and it was decided
to hold a press conference in which Hovik Abrahamyan would sum up the
press conference shows that Abrahamyan first avoided a press
conference but later something made him do it.
In other words, Hovik Abrahamyan did not return from Brussels in a
good mood. Most probably, the EU officials did not believe in his
assurances of integration with the EU or did not believe that he is
ready for self-sacrifice. After all, if real EU integration is means,
it will mean that Hovik Abrahamyan will be among the first who will
leave. He must be the first thread to cut to separate business from
government.
Were the visit successful, the speaker would hurry to inform the
Armenian society about it and hold a triumphant press conference,
especially following the impressive visit of Tigran Sargsyan.
Perhaps it is not important what Hovik Abrahamyan was told in
Brussels. Perhaps, nothing at all. Most probably, he was not told what
he would like to hear. And it is clear why Abrahamyan did not rush to
hold this press conference. It is very difficult to report what you
have not been told in Brussels.
