Yerevan, 8 November: The chairman of the New Times Party, Aram
Karapetyan, thinks that Karlos Petrosyan has voluntarily resigned from
the post of chief of the National Security Service of the Republic
of Armenian. This announcement was made by Karapetyan at a meeting
with journalists on 6 November.

Karapetyan noted that Petrosyan “had been trying for a long time to
introduce changes in Armenia, especially in the economic sphere” and
“finally, the man got tired of all this”.

“I regard his resignation as voluntary, he was tired of fighting and
of seeing no changes in action,” Karapetyan said.
