ArmInfo. The ARF Dashnaksutyun Party is not planning ‘to return’ the
Armenian ex- president Robert Kocharyan to politics as prime minister,
Head of ARFD faction Vahan Hovhannisyan said at the National Press
Club, Thursday.

Robert Kocharyan is a free politician, he may return to politics
whenever he likes, V.Hovhannisyan said. Touching upon the activity
of the ruling coalition, which includes Prosperous Armenia Party,
Republican Party of Armenia, ARF Dashnaksutyun and Orinats Yerkir
Party, Hovhannisyan noted: ‘I don’t think that all the political
forces included in the coalition properly discuss the external
relations inside the party’. As regards Speaker of the Armenian
National Assembly Tigran Torosyan’s resignation, Hovhannisyan said:
‘If the ARFD Party took a decision to change the speaker of parliament
and the latter failed to accept the party’s decision, he would be
expelled from ARFD in 2-3 minutes’.
