ANDRANIK MARGARIAN: PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED NOT IN US AND EUROPE, WE SOLVE
PROBLEMS.
YEREVAN, December 11 (Noyan Tapan). “The “Erkrapah” volunteers union
is not an artificial union: we are united by a joint struggle and the
EVU membership certificates with Vazgen Sargsian’s signature.” The RA
Prime Minister and member of the union board Andranik Margarian stated
this at the opening ceremony of the sixth congress of the EVU on
December 11. According to him, the recent frequent talks about a
possible split in the union are exaggerated. “There have been such
talks since 1999, however, nothing has happened,” Prime Minister
noted. Speaking about the situation formed around the Karabakh
conflict settlement, in particular the issue of the territories under
control of the Armenian side, A. Margarian underlined: “The problems
are solved not in the US and Europe. We do solve the problems. 15
years ago we stated that we would not give, and even if we give, then
only on conditions that suit us.” The salutatory address of the RA
President Robert Kocharian was read at the congress. In particular it
was noted in the address that the Erkrapah Volunteers Union was
founded at a difficult for Armenia time, it has always been with the
people and played a serious role in the society. Levon Mkrtchian, head
of the ARF faction, and Mher Shahgeldian, chairman of the NA standing
committee and vice chairman of the “Orinats Erkir” party, made speeces
of welcome on behalf of the ARF and “Orinats Erkir” parties.
