Reply Open Letter: Sargsyan 'ready' to invite Ter-Petrosyan for meeting
Opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan
no longer considers a meeting with President Serzh Sargsyan as
necessary, a spokesman for the opposition party said on Saturday.
Through ilur.am Arman Musinyan disseminated a report in which he said
that the first president was "fully satisfied" with Sargsyan's reply
to his open letter that concerned some of the aspects of the
Pan-Armenian Declaration adopted ahead of the Armenian Genocide
Centennial.
In reply to this open letter made available to the media on Friday
President Sargsyan said he was ready to accept Ter-Petrosyan's offer
for a meeting. Though, he categorically rejected the ex-president's
claims that the document contradicts Armenia's Constitution as well as
international legal documents.
"Sargsyan thinks that the Declaration is a wonderful document and that
it reflects the will of all Armenians. Meanwhile, Ter-Petrosyan thinks
that the Declaration is a document fraught with dangers for Armenia
and Karabakh and that it cannot express the will of all Armenians
unless it is adopted through a referendum. It is for the public and
generations to judge about all the rest," Musinyan said. "Since this
is a public debate, Ter-Petrosyan no longer sees a need for a private
conversation."
