YEREVAN. – Armenia is on the verge of destruction because the country faces a number of problems that need to be resolved, whereas the authorities and the opposition are unable to resolve them individually.  

Opposition Heritage Party Chairman, ex-presidential candidate, and former FM Raffi Hovannisian noted the aforesaid during a press conference on Friday.

“It is indispensable to hold a nationwide roundtable [discussion] until September 21, the 22nd anniversary of Armenia’s independence; this roundtable is open for all the political forces of Armenia. We are ready to sit at the negotiating table for the future of our country,” Hovannisian stressed.      

To the query as to whether he is prepared to sit at the table with the ruling party and its leader, President Serzh Sargsyan, Raffi Hovannisian laconically responded: “Yes.”
