YEREVAN. - Although the members of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) are sad about their long-term fellow member Hovik Abrahamyan’s  leaving, they at the same time insist his post will not remain vacant.

Head of the RPA faction, Vahram Baghdasaryan, said the aforementioned to Armenian News – NEWS.am, noting that there are no indispensable people in their ranks.

He added that it is not desirable to hear such an announcement after a long-term cooperation, but each person is free to choose his or her position in the political developments and processes.

Referring to the question as to whether old hands of the party like Mher Sedrakyan, Gagik Beglaryan, Surik Khachatryan might follow Hovik Abrahamyan’s example, Baghdasaryan said:

“Time will show, they are the friends of all of us. RPA is one team.”
