On June 4, the member of the Armenian National Congress, the head of
the Marxist Party, David Hakobyan stated that his party is against the
decision of the Armenian National Congress to refuse the mandates of
the Yerevan Elders’ Council. David Hakobyan stated that it is wrong
to refuse the mandates, because it means that the nation loses an
important platform.

David Hakobyan stated that the Congress is obvious to lose its
voters, the proof of which is that Levon Ter-Petrosyan got more
votes at the presidential election that at the Mayoral one. David
Hakobayn, disagreeing with the HAK decision to boycott, stated
that a representative of the Congress visited him and brought an
application on refusing his mandate for David Hakobyan to sign. David
Hakobyan stated that if the HAK refuses the mandates there should be
a joint application for all the members of the ticket, otherwise,
David Hakobyan may refuse the mandate and the other members of the
ticket may preserve them. David Hakobayn stated that in this way,
the members of the HHSh may clear the list from unpleasant people for
them and only the pleasant ones will have the right to hold offices
at the Yerevan Elders’ Council.

David Hakobyan, who is against the HAK boycott, stated that he wanted
to talk to Levon Ter-Petrosyan in this connection, but he was not
given such an opportunity. David Hakobyan stated that people wanted
the opposition to use that tribune and all the responsibility falls
on the "bandits from HHSh". In other words, being against the boycott,
David Hakobyan will not accept the mandate if the HAK does not change
its intention to refuse it. By the way, leaders of other HAK member
political parties, in private conversations with him, were against
the HAK boycott, stated David Hakobyan.

He stated that they had to accept the mandates to be able to struggle
against the "Republicans in their own den". According to David
Hakobayn, refusing mandates is a political idiotism. And in the end,
David Hakobayn is ready to go alone in the den of the Republicans,
if the HAK decides to send there only one tribune.

By the way, David Hakobyan stated that his "personal daughter",
Hasmik Hakobyan, who was on the HAK ticket too, according to David
Hakobayn, is a very educated person, she finished the English Gordon
University and she is a person of a high erudition and intellect,
and she is a highly qualified pharmacist. He stated that none of 5
people on different tickets were pharmacists, while this market needs
to be corrected.
