"The Justice opposition bloc has accomplished its historic mission,"
Grigor Harutyunyan, Representative of the Board of People’s Party of
Armenia (PPA), said at the briefing in the National Assembly today.

He added that the Justice bloc was unprecedented from the point that
the bloc existed during the whole period of the Parliament of the 3rd
call. "Today, the key objective of opposition it to prevent rigging of
parliamentary elections," G. Harutyunyan declared. Commenting on the
opposition’s failure to consolidate in a pre-election bloc, he said
that he sees no point in consolidating into amorphous blocs – and
"this is why PPA decided to participate independently in the
elections."

G. Harutyunyan said that PPA was even ready to integrate into the
Impeachment bloc if the other two opposition powers would have jointed
the alliance too. "We believe that the Impeachment bloc could be
efficient only if the whole political opposition integrated in to it.
Unfortunately, the parties – National Unity and Orinats Yerkir, did
not consider it worthy to make such a step," he said.

G. Harutyunyan pointed out that PPA proposed parliamentary powers,
within the Justice bloc, to stay in the bloc and simultaneously
continue the work for setting up legal authority in Armenia. However,
the parties within the Justice bloc declined the proposal. He said
that PPA is ready to cooperate with all parties in opposition.

Despite the opposition’s failure to consolidate, G. Harutyunyan makes
a forecast – opposition will be well presented in the Parliament of
the 4th call. "Today we fight for the majority," he asserted.
