SAMVEL BALASANYAN RESIGNS
[06:41 pm] 29 May, 2006
Head of the OYP faction Samvel Balasanyan answering our questions
confirmed that he is not going to leave the party. After he failed to
be present at the NA briefings the rumors about his resignation
sounded more and more truthful. `I have lived for 52 years and lived
in a righteous way. I have two children who are about to start their
own lives. Wouldn’t they asked me – father, what have you done?’
Samvel Balasanyan said.
Asked if he will continue to head the faction or Arthur Baghdasaryan
will take up the responsibility Samvel Balasanyan answered with a
counter question, «Do you think it is possible to announce during
tomorrow’s plenary session that member of the OYP faction Arthur
Baghdasaryan is going to make speech? Naturally that won’t happen, so
I’m resigning immediately. I will announce about it officially». By
the way, there have been no discussions in the party yet but Samvel
Balasanyan is decisive.
