REPUBLICAN PARTY OF ARMENIA HASN'T RECEIVED HERITAGE PARTY'S INVITATION
Tert.am
15:53 ~U 31.03.10
Neither the coalition member parties nor the non-parliamentary
opposition groups have responded to Heritage Party's suggestion to
hold round table discussions on Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenian-Turkish
relations and the probability of a new war that could be initiated
by Azerbaijan, said Heritage Party faction leader Stepan Safaryan at
a press conference today.
Responding to Safaryan, Republican Party of Armenia MP Karen Avagyan
said that, as far as he knew, his party hadn't received an invitation.
"This statement is not [meant to be] sensational. President Sargsyan
has [so far] convened three such meetings. The topics discussed during
these meetings were of public and pan-national interest. Should it
be necessary, the president will again summon such meetings himself,"
said Avagyan.
Safaryan, in turn, said that the format of those meetings organized
in the Karen Demirchyan Sport and Concert Complex is different from
that which the Heritage Party is proposing: in those meetings, each
participant is given only 5 minutes to make a speech and there is no
dialogue, and no debate takes place.
"In Armenia, we have only monologues, not dialogues," said Safaryan.
Round table invitations had been sent by Heritage also to various
individuals from Nagorno-Karabakh and the Diaspora.
