Yesterday in the hotel Yerevan for the first time all the main
political powers of Armenia met except the Armenian Revolutionary
Federation the absence of which was purely technical and the National
Unity. From the coalition Vahan Hovhannisyan, Tigran Torosyan, Mher
Shahgeldyan were present, and Grigor Ghonjeyan from the United Labor
Party. From the opposition the «Republican Party of Armenia», «New
Times», «Union for National Self-Determination», «People’s Party
of Armenia», «National Democratic Party», «National Democratic
Union», and «Constitutional Right» were present.

The aim of the meeting was to come to an agreement about a problem
of who will control the political life of Armenia – political powers
or others?

Paruyr Hayrikyan, leader of the Union for National Self-Determination,
informed about it during today’s press conference. The initiative
belongs to Ashot Manoucharyan; and the reason is the incident during
the meeting of the “New Times” Party in Sevan two days ago. It is
already known that the police have tries to give criminal coloring
to Aram Karapetyan’s actions.

The political powers have come to an agreement that the apolitical
powers must be removed from the political field, especially criminal
powers. Almost all the speakers claimed that the political powers
must be united in this matter.

According to Paruyr Hayrikyan, Vahan Hovhannisyan has offered a
asymmetric solution mentioning that maybe it is high time the 100$
proportional electoral system were announced about. “This is the way
to prevent the entrance of the apolitical powers into the political
field”, this was the conclusion of the powers gathered in the hotel
Yerevan.

They have signed two documents, in which it is said that they condemn
the incident in Sevan and the violation towards Aram Karapetyan and
the members of his party and they demand the state structure to find
and punish those responsible immediately.

On April 28 the political powers will meet once again to see what
measures are taken.
