parties, the "National Unity" party leader Artashes Geghamyan offered
to invite RA President Robert Kocharyan and PM Serzh Sargsyan to the
next consultations, an informed source close to one of the parties,
which took part at yesterday’s meeting, told ArmInfo.
According to the information, A. Geghamyan hopes to achieve a national
unity. At the previous meeting, he addressed the country’s authorities
to retire voluntarily. However, his initiatives were not supported
by is oppositional counterparts. Meanwhile, it has become known
about a bilateral meeting of leaders of "Orinats Yerkir" party Artur
Baghdasaryan and the People’s party Stepan Demirchyan. As ArmInfo’s

strive to enlist support of PPA’s leader on the threshold of the
presidential election.

namely, the "Heritage", "Republic", the Armenian National Movement
and the "Alternative" movement did not take part at yesterday’s
meeting, initiated and widely announced by leader of the "Unity

about which participants of yesterday’s consultations agreed.
