The Armenian Parliament will only ratify the documents which meet the Armenian people’s interests, Galust Sahakyan, The Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) faction leader, RPA Deputy Chairman, told a press conference today.

“Armenia and Turkey only released Protocols dated April 22, 2009. The documents will be finalized in two months. It is unknown so far if the documents will be signed. However, political forces have designated them as treasonable,” Sahakyan said.

He underlined that if the Protocols are not in Armenia’s interests, people will “protest and take to the streets.” Answering to a NEWS.am question why the Protocols include the point on ratification by the Parliaments, whereas it is not provided for by the Armenian law, Sahakyan said: “The matter is of interest to us as well, but the Protocols are conceptual documents and need to be ratified by the Parliaments. Besides, the Genocide issue evokes a wide response,” stated the parliamentarian.
