April 4, 2009

The Armenian Ramgavar party requested current MP Serge Torsarkissian
stand as the candidate for the Armenian Catholic seat in Beirut I
district in the upcoming parliamentary elections.

The party held an exceptional meeting on Saturday after Lebanese
Forces leader Samir Geagea announced Richard Kouyoudjian as its
candidate for the same seat. In a press release it issued after the
meeting Ramgavar reiterated that in its last meeting with the March 14
alliance there was agreement on coordination for the nomination of any
March 14 Armenian candidate in all districts.
