YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 4, ARMENPRESS. The opposition “Armenia” and “I Have the Honor” factions of the Parliament will not nominate a candidate for the President of the Republic and will not take part in the election of the new President.

“We have discussed the appropriateness of nominating a candidate, however in such situation we consider it wrong and unacceptable to participate in the legitimation of that election, even indirectly”, the “Armenia” bloc said in a statement on social media. “Based on these confirmations, the “Armenia” and “I Have the Honor” factions of the National Assembly decided not to take part in the election of the President of the Republic in any way”, it added.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
