Raffi Hovannisyan Calls for Unity of Opposition
He declares that Heritage will go it alone if necessary
When asked about the state of relations between his party and the opposition-based HAK (Armenian National Congress led by Levon Ter-Petrosyan), particularly in light of a recent statement that the Heritage Party would no longer be supporting HAK, Raffi Hovannisyan said that Heritage had never officially declared such a thing.
"One of our MP’s expressed a personal opinion, which they have a right to do. But I do not believe that speaking about the upcoming elections and the potential candidates at this time is the politically mature thing to do," Hovannisyan said.
The Heritage Party leader added that the party would talk to all parliamentary and extra-parliamentary forces, as well as civil groups. "We do not suffer from such a complex or restrictions," he said.
Hovannisyan said that the party was in support of an oppositional political alternative that was ideologically-based, strong, and which could ensure political results to future generations.
The former RA Foreign Minister stressed that Heritage was ready to go it alone, under its own banner, in any election campaign.
He called on all opposition leaders and individuals to realize the following simple truth – that by following separate paths, there is little chance of achieving regime change in a civilized manner.
