DASHNAKTSUTYUN PARTY STILL REMAINS A MEMBER OF RULING COALITION
Support A1+!Vahan Hovhannisyan, member of one of ruling coalition party Dashnaktsutyun, answering journalists’ questions Friday in National Press Club, made it clear that the party now has no intention to quit the coalition. “We can quit the coalition if it stops to correspond to our ideas”, he said.
“Do the ruling coalition ideas correspond to Dashnaks’ ones now?”
“Not completely”, he answered and added that “our opinions differ on some points of constitutional amendments and electoral code”.
“Does it mean Hovhannisyan is opposed to the idea of giving Robert Kocharyan a chance to be elected for the third term?”
“Yes. In my opinion, a president will remain in office for two terms. However, there were some exceptions in democratic world”, he said and as an example of that singled out Franklin Roosevelt’s presidency.
