Armenia – July 6 2022

MP Vahe Hakobyan of the opposition Hayastan bloc has denied reports that he plans to step down.

He also ruled out the possibility of quitting the Hayastan faction without giving up his parliament seat.

“The faction will make a final decision on the parliament seats in September,” the MP told Pastinfo.

Asked whether he plans to quit politics in the near future, Hakobyan said: “I won’t quit politics so long as [PM] Nikol Pashinyan stays in power. I will stay in office until he leaves.”

Earlier on Monday, Hayastan MP Artur Ghazinyan announced his decision to resign from the parliament.

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
