Extra-parliamentary forces not invited to rally against pension reforms
14:49 - 11.01.14
Representatives of extra-parliamentary political forces say they
haven't been invited to the parliamentary opposition's rally scheduled
next week.
Four parliamentary factions - the Armenian Revolutionary
Federation-Dashnaksutyun (ARF-D), the Armenian National Congress
(ANC), Prosperous Armenia and Heritage - decided in a joint session on
Friday to organize a rally on January 18 to protest against the
pension reforms.
Mikael Poghosyan, the leader of the Conservative Party of Armenia,
said they will probably not attend the rally as they haven't received
an invitation.
The National Self-Determination Union has not been invited either,
according to its leader, Paruyr Hayrikyan.
`The major concern today has to do with the Customs Union, our forced
membership in the new Soviet Union, an alliance of three dictators.
Others may find more questions, important or unimportant,' he said.
Commenting on amended pension law making pension accumulation
compulsory for all Atmrni born after 1974, Hayrikyan said he thinks
its enforcement on voluntary bases would be more advisable.
Garegin Chigaszyan of the pre-parliament group said they are still
undecided about plans of attending the January 18 rally.
