“I do not think that anything extraordinary has happened,” Serge
Sargsian, RA defense minister, said in response to the question
about the resignation of Artur Baghdasarian, chairman of RA National
Assembly.

As for the recent withdrawals of the members of Orinats Yerkir party,
Mr. Sargsian said that no pressure was exerted on them. He assured that
people join a party for certain goals to support a certain force and
when that force has problems with the authorities, they have nothing
to do but to leave the party they had joined earlier. Mr. Sargsian
advised to interview Mr. Baghdasarian about his resignation. Mr.

Sargsian added that they do not confront and do not struggle against
each other.
