Heritage party Chairman Raffi Hovannisian, at his meeting with
journalists, commented on the "three steps" proposed by Chairman of
the Republic party Aram Sargsyan.
He noted that the steps have partially been made, and the opposition
MP' resignation is an issue of secondary importance. According to him,
snap parliamentary elections will soon be held.
The republic party leader stated, in particular, that the right
political steps - Raffi Hovannisian's hunger strike, opposition MPs'
resignation from parliament and as many people attending at rallies
as possible - will force President Serzh Sargsyan to not only come
to Freedom Square, but also to do much more. And the least he can do
is to organize snap parliamentary elections.
"The first condition has been met. As to the third - Friday will
show how many people intend to take part in the rally. But we are not
sheep any more, and our victory is everywhere," Mr Hovannisian said.
"We will certainly have a real National Assembly, which will reflect
the people's real choice, because the country's population, which is
a minority now, must turn into majority," he said.
