The Republican Party of Armenia did
not apply and will hardly apply to the initiative of the four non-coalition
parliamentary forces (Prosperous Armenia Party, ARFD, Armenian Nationbal
Congress and Heritage party) to involve the issue of tabling a motion of no
confidence in the government in the agenda, vice-speaker of the National
Assembly, press-secretary of the RPA, Edward Sharmazanov, told journalists.
<Why the RPA should apply to this issue. In all
over the world governments and formed and dissolved by the ruling majority. The
minority does not have the needed levers to affect the given issue. So, the statement of the "four" is
nothing else than another adventure", - he said and added that unlike the
authorities, there are disagreements within the opposition. "If Armenian
National Congress and Heritage party insist on regime change, the PAP and ARFD
do not have such a point on the agenda", - he said.
Touching on the referendum in the Crimea and Armenia's
position in the matter, Sharmazanov repeated the statement by the president of
Armenia, according to which Armenia has always been for fulfillment of the
principles of the peoples' right for self-determination.
