YEREVAN. -There are no constitutional grounds for snap parliamentary
elections in Armenia, MP of the Armenian National Assembly Vardan
Khachatryan told reporters on Thursday.
“Currently snap elections could significantly affect the revolutionary
sentiments,” he noted. According to him, presidential elections by
Georgian scenario are unlikely in Armenia, when President Mikheil
Saakashvili announced his resignation and again ran for the president.
Commenting on the dialogue between the ruling coalition and the
oppositional Armenian National Congress, Khachatryan noted if the
dialogue is embedded in public mind as a foundation for future division
of power between the Republican Party of Armenia and the ANC, public
will no longer trust the dialogue.
