Opposition Bright Armenia Party leader says a process won’t lead to Nikol Pashinyan’s resignation

After talking to citizens, I came to the conclusion that there is a demand for snap elections, and my political party has already started preparing for those elections. This is what leader of the opposition Bright Armenia Party Edmon Marukyan told reporters in parliament today.

“Knowing Nikol Pashinyan, I know that a process won't lead to his resignation,” the political party leader added.

Asked why he is leading a struggle if he knows this, Marukyan noted that nobody predicted a revolution in Armenia and the resignation of Serzh Sargsyan. “Politics is the art of the possible. Yes, the incumbent Prime Minister doesn’t want to leave in any case, but I don’t think he’ll be able to maintain power this way,” he said.
