YEREVAN, JUNE 7, NOYAN TAPAN. "At last a new political culture
is created in Armenia: the people did not say "yes" to political
forces agitating hostility: it said "yes" to criticizing, arguing,
disputing forces, which at last give birth to some result, no matter
how much they differ in their political approaches," ARFD Bureau
member Vahan Hovhannisian stated on June 7, at the first sitting of
newly elected National Assembly. According to the political agreement,
his candidature was offered for the post of NA Vice-Speaker.
In V. Hovhannisian’s words, the appearance of the current political
palette is the following: there is a political coalition and a
political force closely cooperating with the latter. Centralization of
left and right centripetal forces happened as a result. V. Hovhannisian
also said that it is clear that neither righ-hand nor left-hand
extremism has a future in Armenia. In his opinion, under new conditions
when NA has wide powers according to the constitutional amendments,
"indeed a good spring-board is created for further developments."
