YEREVAN, September 22. /ARKA/. Armenian Prime Minister Arndranik
Margaryan, speaking Thursday on Kentron TV channel, denied allegations
about tension between Republican Party led by him and Prosperous
Armenia headed by prominent entrepreneurs Gagik Tsarukyan.
"Why Republican Party should be in bad terms with Prosperous Armenia,
especially taking into account the fact that the latter is not an
opposition party", he said.
In his words, there are some political forces wanting conflict between
the two parties.
"But there is not a bit of it, and nothing like that will happen,
since I’m in good terms with Gagik Tsarukyan, we have common friends
and we won’t let somebody affect our relations", the PM said.
