PRESIDENT’S RESPONSE TO ANC LEAVES SOCIETY’S PROBLEMS UNRESOLVED – OPPOSITION MP

Armenian president Serzh Sargsyan’s response to the demands of the
opposition Armenia National Congress (ANC) was a commendable move,
but it does not provide any solution to the existing problems, says
an opposition MP.

“It is commendable that Serzh Sargsyan leaves no public question open,
but that does not solve the society’s problems,” Armen Martirosyan
of the opposition Heritage party faction in parliament told Tert.am.

It comes after Sargsyan addressed the opposition alliance’s recent
proposal for initiating a dialogue with the authorities. The president
particularly said that dialogue is the only way to move forward.

“If instead of negotiations, which are unacceptable, the Armenian
National Congress is genuinely ready to continue the dialogue on
the outline of the country’s development, essential issues of the
country’s foreign and internal policies and desires to do so through
the specially designated individuals, the representatives of the
Coalition parties can sit down at the discussions table with them. The
Political Coalition is ready to conduct such discussions with all
political forces which possess concrete proposals,” Sargsyan said,
according to an official statement from the presidential office.
