Heritage does not preclude possibility of pre-term parliamentary elections in ArmeniaAugust 4, 2009 - 19:37 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "Black PR, recently conducted by RA authorities towards Heritage Chairman Raffi Hovhannesyan, allows me to suppose pre-term parliamentary elections could be held in autumn," Heritage Party Press Secretary Hovsep Khurshudyan stated in Yerevan. According to him, the fact that campaign started now and is being continued after numerous disclaimers of Heritage and its Leader Raffi Hovhannesyan suggests the idea of oncoming parliamentary elections. He expressed a regret that authorities' informational attacks are circulated through television, but disclaimers are being published in printed media only. According to Heritage Press Secretary, from now on Heritage position will assume more independent and centrist character, as gone are the times when a single candidate should be supported. When questioned by reporters if strengthening of tension in RA domestic policy should be expected in autumn, Heritage MP Zaruhi Postanjyan responded that she expects no crucial turns in RA political sphere. On July 24, RA Republican Party Chairman Galust Sahakyan stated that in 1994, at OSCE Ministers' Committee sitting, RA Foreign Minister Raffi Hovhannesyan signed a document confirming NKR as a part of Azerbaijan territory.
