it from the political field, she called on the oppositioon forces
"not to be involved in this dirty games".

all facts it has to "Impeachment" bloc. R. Khachatrian pointed out
that PPA will assist "Impeachment" in the issue of appealing to the
RA Cosntitutional Court.

there are people who see only the presidential chair and they are
not interested in anything else," she said.
