YEREVAN, MARCH 5, NOYAN TAPAN. Smbat Yeghiazarian, the Secretary of
the Abovian territorial office of the People's Party of Armenia (PPA)
stated that he has information that party head Stepan Demirchian
has negotiated with the authorities still from September, 2006,
to guarantee five per cent of votes for the PPA at the future
parliament. He promised to present the facts during the coming
days. The "Haykakan Zhamanak" (Armenian Time) daily writes about it.
"The party betrayed its principles today. Stepan Demirchian has never
had independence. One can say he has always been led. The party today
betrayed its members," Smbat Yeghiazarian stated on the previous day,
after the serious scandal promoted in the PPA Abovian territorial
office, which finished with the latter's resignation. NA PPA deputy
Grigor Haroutiunian who was present at the precedent, qualified these
accusations addressed to St.Demirchian as absurdity, adding that the
PPA has never betrayed and will never betray its principles. In PPA
Political Council member Ruzan Khachatrian's opinion, Yeghiazarian
spoke only after the party list was read. In her words, there are many
people deserving the first place of the list, but nobody responded
in this way.
But before it S.Yeghiazarian mentioned that his statement has no
relation with that lists. He insisted that he proposed to make staff
changes to take the party out of the hard state and S.Demirchian was
against it. In his words, Demirchian, maybe, prepares to go to the
elections without the PPA.
G.Haroutiunian stated that they convened a council sitting, and the
council did not receive S.Yeghiazarian's resignation application. In
S.Yeghiazarian's words, his application was not accepted as all the
council member arose the issue that if he would leave they would leave,
too. "But I will not take any step with a similar person. I will
not subject to the council decision. I have nothing to compromise,"
S.Yeghiazarian stated.
