/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Black PR, recently conducted by RA authorities
towards Heritage Chairman Raffi Hovhannesyan, allows me to suppose
pre-term parliamentary elections could be held in autumn," Heritage
Party Press Secretary Hovsep Khurshudyan stated in Yerevan. According
to him, the fact that campaign started now and is being continued after
numerous disclaimers of Heritage and its Leader Raffi Hovhannesyan
suggests the idea of oncoming parliamentary elections. He expressed a
regret that authorities’ informational attacks are circulated through
television, but disclaimers are being published in printed media only.
According to Heritage Press Secretary, from now on Heritage position
will assume more independent and centrist character, as gone are the
times when a single candidate should be supported. When questioned by
reporters if strengthening of tension in RA domestic policy should
be expected in autumn, Heritage MP Zaruhi Postanjyan responded that
she expects no crucial turns in RA political sphere. On July 24, RA
Republican Party Chairman Galust Sahakyan stated that in 1994, at OSCE
Ministers’ Committee sitting, RA Foreign Minister Raffi Hovhannesyan
signed a document confirming NKR as a part of Azerbaijan territory.
