ARARAT ZURABYAN QUITS ARMENIAN PAN NATIONAL MOVEMENT

Tert.am
14.06.11

Ararat Zurabyan of the Armenian Pan-National Movement (APNM) has
withheld his membership to the party.

Speaking to Tert.am, the APNM deputy board chair of, Vahagn Hayotsyan,
said he didn’t know the exact date Zurabyan had submitted his
resignation.

“Perhaps it was late in the evening; anyway I have not yet seen his
notice,” he said.

Hayotsyan said he was unaware of the reasons Zurabyan decided to quit
the party.

Tert.am’s attempts to contact the activist himself were unsuccessful.

He is reportedly planning to join a newly established political party
called Free Democrats (whose leader is a former board chair of the
Armenian Pan-National Movement, Khachatur Kokobelyan).

Zurabyan, who was formerly the APNM deputy board chair, resigned
from his post last year. Since July 10, 2010, he had been an ordinary
member of the party.
