Resignation of Speaker Not Result of Conflict With President: RPA

RESIGNATION OF ARMENIAN SPEAKER NOT RESULT OF CONFLICT WITH PRESIDENT:
HEAD OF RPA FACTION

Yerevan, May 12. ArmInfo. “The expected resignation of Armenian
parliamentary speaker Arthur Baghdasaryan cannot be connected with his
interview with the German newspaper ” Frankfurter Allgemeine ” wherein
the speaker tried to specify the priorities of Armenia’s foreign
policy ahead of the country’s president,> Galust Sahakyan, Head of RPA
faction, told ArmInfo.

G. Sahakyan believes that “withdrawing from the coalition, “Orinats
Yerkir” team is settling its own tasks.> He thinks it untimely
forecasting the election of the new speaker. Naming no nominee from
the RPA, G. Sahakyan stressed the role of the party in the election of
the new speaker. “The frames of cooperation with political forces
remain wide enough and our legislative activity will not be
interrupted,> he says.

Commenting on the statement by “Orinats Yerkir” representative
Hovhanness Margaryan, that “OY” displayed readiness to leave the posts
for ideas, hereby gaining new voters, G. Sahakyan says: “We shall only
welcome if they gain new voters.”

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
