The meeting of the majority My Step party in Aghveran last week was not smooth, Hraparak newspaper reported.

"In particular, Nikol Pashinyan’s decision not to go to early elections caused dissatisfaction: some expressed themselves publicly, saying that early elections were simply necessary and did not even hide that they were threatened with physical violence and an end to this situation was needed. But this opinion was based on the fact that you need to do it quickly, to win quickly in order to live in peace," the newspaper said.

"We were told that during the discussion of the issue and even after it, there was a verbal skirmish between some of the deputies in favor of and against the early elections. As for further developments, the consequence of this decision may be that several deputies will declare their resignation from the My Step faction. They even indicate a specific number: three deputies," the newspaper added.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
