The opposition ‘Armenia’ and ‘I Have Honor’ blocs have agreed on which member of the blocs will be nominated for Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly. This is what representative of the Supreme Body of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation-Dashnaktsutyun political party (ARF-D) Ishkhan Saghatelyan, who was elected Member of Parliament and represents ‘Armenia’ bloc, said in an interview with Channel 5 TV.

“The blocs have reached an agreement, but we’ll announce the name on Monday,” he added.

Touching upon the political developments, Saghatelyan said the following: “The next elections will also be snap elections because people who were defeated in the war and brought misery to the people and country can’t continue to rule the country. It’s impossible.”

“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
