INNER PROBLEMS SPLIT COALITION

Politics

Discords among the deputies of «Orinats Yerkir» and RPA fractions were the main subject today of RPA deputy Armen Ashotyan's press-conference.

Especially bellicose he was towards “OY” deputies Hovhannes Margaryan and Samvel Balasanyan. Mr. Ashotyan was irritated by the above mentioned deputies’ appearance on one of the TV channels. These appearances were described by A. Ashotyan as “a soap opera with low-rated circus items”.

To the question why the second side is not invited today for an open dispute on this disagreement Armen Ashotyan stated that they are not invited, as he was not invited to yesterday’s meeting either. «But if the dispute turns up to reality, it'll make quite an amusing talk-show», he said. The deputy added that the quarrel does not apply to the two parties, but inter-personal relations are the matter. The republican deputy defined the behavior of the “Orinats Yerkir” deputies as political debility, graphic evidences of which were their appearances. The RPA deputy finished his speech saying that Armenian politicians are far from coalition cooperation culture.

As regards NA speaker’s “negative” statements on the results of constitutional referendum Ashotyan said that he had had a conversation with Arthur Baghdasaryan in Parliament during which NA Chairman characterized his statement as “another party PR”.
