YEREVAN.- Head of the Armenian National Congress (ANC) parliamentary group Levon Zurabyan dismissed press reports claiming he would be replaced by Stepan Demirchyan.

Asked whether Demirchyan will head the faction, Zurabyan said the reports are untrue. He noted that Nikol Pashinyan and Hrant Bagratyan had not participated in the last meetings of the ANC parliamentary faction, offering to address them to clarify the reasons.

Nikol Pashinyan and former presidential candidate Hrant Bagratyan were not present at the founding convention of ANC held last Saturday.
