Yerevan, May 18. /Mediamax/. Speaker of the National Assembly of
Armenia, Deputy Chairman of the Republican Party of Armenia Tigran
Torosian expressed confidence today that the following president of
the country will belong to a certain party.
Mediamax reports that, speaking at a news conference in Yerevan today,
Tigran Torosian commented on the behavior of the parties, which failed
during the elections.
According to him, "the behavior is more like an excuse than an
impartial assessment of the elections". The Speaker stressed that "it
does not matter that some forces did not enter the parliament, as the
elections were fair and each one received the mark for the work done".
"What concerns the forces, which gave unrealistic promises and
expressed confidence in their victory, they were the ones to believe
in it", Tigran Torosian noted, adding that "now the disappointed
oppositional forces organize disputes not only at the political level,
but at the personal as well".
He expressed confidence that "if the political forces don’t try
to soberly analyze their mistakes, they will be failing in future
as well".
Tigran Torosian stressed that the Republican Party of Armenia "is
ready to cooperate with everyone, even the oppositional forces",
noting that the cooperation can have not only coalition nature.
