President's all-Armenian tour started and ended the same wayOctober 8, 2009 - 18:40 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "Despite protest actions, Armenian President's meetings were held in warm atmosphere," member of Social-Democratic Hnchakyan party Sebuh Kalpakyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, commenting on President's meeting with Armenian community representatives in Lebanon. Despite Serzh Sargsyan's convincing speech, Diaspora's position remains unchanged, since supporters and protesters continue sticking to their views, he finds. Meetings with President were attended by representatives of traditional parties (ARFD, Hnchakyan and Rmakavar Azatakans) although not all of them accepted the invitation to continue discussion at supper. "I can't say whether or not President's tour was a success because I don't know the real purpose," Sebuh Kalpakian stressed.
