Heritage Party and the ARFD object to the Republican Party's draft
statement on mechanisms to find ways out of the post-election situation
in Armenia.
The head of Heritage's parliamentary group Ruben Hakobyan has told
ArmInfo that this document has nothing to do with the reality caused
by the Feb 18 presidential election. "In their time the Republicans
dismissed our proposals to dissolve the parliament, to conduct 100%
party-list elections and to transit to a parliamentary regime, and now
they are suggesting things that have nothing to do with the current
reality. If they actually want to find a way out, they must consider
our scenario as well," Hakobyan said.
The Armenian National Congress has its own proposals, stipulating
removing the illegitimate regime and restoring the constitutional
order.
"For this purpose, we must amend the Electoral Code and jointly
consider ways to organize mid-term presidential and parliamentary
elections," the ANC says, adding that it is ready to discuss only
this scenario.
In an interview with ArmInfo the secretary of the parliamentary
group of the ARFD Aghvan Vardanyan was laconic: "We have examined
that document and cannot accept it."
Prosperous Armenia will make its position public this evening.
The Republican Party suggests organizing political consultations
between the ruling forces and the opposition with a view to find
solutions to the most urgent problems.
