Ramgavar Party Opposes LF’s Armenian Catholic Pick in Beirut 1

The Ramgavar party has objected to the Lebanese Forces’ (LF)
nomination of Richard Kuyumjian for the Armenian Catholic seat in
Beirut’s first district.

In a meeting on Saturday, the party’s executive committee affirmed its
"support and solidarity with MP Serge Tor Sarkissian as March 14’s
candidate for the Armenian Catholic seat" in the district.

The committee mentioned that the party had previously coordinated with
other March 14 authorities on the issue of the bloc’s Armenian
candidates.

Informed sources told An Nahar newspaper that Tor Sarkissian’s
nomination was still under debate.
