Don’t be suddenly swayed. Pashinyan-“Sasna Tsrer”: 1:1

“Sasna Tsrer” party started the pre-election campaign today with a statement, which was later referred to by the Acting Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan. 

In particular, the leader of the pre-election list of the party, Varuzhan Avetisyan, expressed the opinion that the newly elected National Assembly will not have a long life, that the next two years will be a transitional parliament, after which there will be new extraordinary elections.

“We presented just such a plan, and in our opinion, after two years, the National Assembly should have completed its transition phase and we should go to extraordinary elections again. We plan that during that time a new Constitution should be adopted and new, extraordinary elections should be held on the basis of it,” Avetisyan said in particular.

This statement upset Pashinyan, who urged the newly created party to “not hesitate”.

“Have you really decided that you are given the right to decide the size of the parliament and sometimes even people’s lives? I tell you, don’t suddenly hesitate, this is not the weak and feeble government of Serzh Sargsyan for you,” said Pashinyan.

He also added that no one should dare to interpret their smiles and politeness as weakness.
