As Arman Melikyan told a news conference in Yerevan, “the ranks of ANC supporters are thinning out, with even those nearest to Congress leader Levon Ter-Petrossian disillusioned.” “However, I don’t believe any of the groups which left ANC ranks stand a chance of becoming a serious political force,” Melikyan said.
