ArmInfo. Armenian Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktiutyun [ARFD] will
leave the political coalition, source close to the ARFD told ArmInfo.
They have already adopted such a decision which will be voiced at the
press-conference of the representative of ARFD Supreme Body Armen
Rustamyan at 1:00 PM.

To recall, representatives of ARFD said they are going to discuss the
problem of their party staying within the coalition because of the
recent joint statement of Foreign ministries of Armenia and Turkey
about definition of the roadmap. The ARFD is mainly displeased by the
fact that the statement was made at the threshold of 24 April – Memory
Day of the victims of the Armenian genocide in Ottoman Turkey.

In all probability representatives of the ARFD will leave their high
post in the executive power.
