ArmInfo. "I did not allow representative of "Heritage" party Vardan
Khachatryan to take part in August 28 meeting of the leaders of the
democratic forces, as it would be held only at the level of the first
persons", Chairman of the "Unity for Self-determination", organizer
of the meetings of oppositional party leaders Paruyr Hayrikyan told
journalists in "Hayatsk" club.

"The interest to the meeting I initiated, turned out to be much higher
than I expected. Any meeting aimed at specification of positions and
approaches of democratic party leaders is justified, including the
last one", P. Hayrikyan said.

He also said that he will not allow to call the meetings a meeting of
oppositionists as the matter concerns contacts of democratic forces,
the parties, which consider themselves democratic. Participation of
representatives of the power parties in the following meetings is
not ruled out, since provisions of the programme are important for
its organizer.

Asked about possible support of candidacy of his multiyear opponent,
first President of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrosyan, the politician replied
that he can support the candidacy of RA PM Serzh Sargsyan as well,
if the latter accepts the proposed programme, the milestone of which
should become a mechanism of turning Armenia into the most democratic
state of the world.
