08:14, 28.02.2015
YEREVAN. – Well-informed sources report that, in the coming days,
ex-FM and non-pro-government Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) MP Vartan
Oskanian is going to make a statement about renouncing his
parliamentary seat and leaving the PAP, Haykakan Zhamanak daily
reported.
“Even though Oskanian was number two in the PAP’s proportional
[election] list and therefore he can leave the [PAP National Assembly]
Faction without giving up his [parliamentary] mandate, he prefers to
leave both the party and the parliament.
“Our sources claim that Oskanian will also leave politics and engage
in research activities in the coming years. The option of emigration
from Armenia is not ruled out either,” Haykakan Zhamanak wrote.
