The Chairwoman of Social Democrat Hunchakian Party (SDHP) Lyudmila
Sargsyan said that does not consider a Dec.16 Tsakhkadzor congress
convened by a group of Hunchaks a congress, she told in an interview
with NEWS.am.

Asked why extraordinary congress was held behind closed doors, which
is an RA legislation outrage, Sargsyan replied: "It was closed, so
as the journalists wouldn’t see the men of the street attending the
congress. There were no Hunchaks there."

A group of Hunchakian Party members, led by Vahan Shirkhanyan,
organized an extraordinary closed congress in Tsakhkadzor. A minority
group calling themselves Hunchaks intends to expel the duly elected
leader Lyudmila Sargsyan from the party.

She accused the closed congress organizers of attempts to withdraw
SDHP from Armenian National Congress and sell out to authorities.
