THERE IS NO BREAKTHROUGH SO THERE MUST BE EARLY ELECTIONS
A breakthrough is necessary to resolve the situation in Armenia, said the leader of the Heritage Party Raffi Hovannisian on July 7 at the Hayeli press club, noting that the steps of the government in that direction brought about some changes in the tax service and the customs but it will not produce any overall result unless the rule of law is established in the country. In this connection, Raffi Hovannisian said he is against extraordinary solutions but thinks that if there is no breakthrough, the way out is an early election because otherwise the government is merely putting off the outburst of emotions accumulated in the society. It should be noted that Raffi Hovannisian did not specify if he means early presidential or parliamentary elections.
