Data Collection Group members broke up for a lengthy tea party?

PanARMENIAN.Net - March 1, 2008 events' Data Collection Group member, coalition representative Robert Avakyan who's left the group, announced that his decision remains unchanged. "I won't return to the group, even if RA President insisted on my returning," he told a news conference today.



He emphasized that its impossible to work in the same group with a person like ANC representative Andranik Kocharyan.

"I realize how serious the issue is, and that the group's existence in danger," Avakyan noted and emphasized that to avid accusations of pressure and hampering of the group's work, he decided to yield leadership to opposition and allow them to work. "Andranik Kotcharyan would always ironize that I'm at a tea party. So I'm going home to have tea," Robert Avakyan ironized in return.
