YEREVAN. - Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan’s response to the dialogue between the oppositional Armenian National Congress (ANC) was definite. The president made it clear that he says “yes” to the dialogue, head of “Heritage” parliamentary group Stepan Safaryan told Armenian News-NEWS.am. Meanwhile, Serzh Sargsyan made it clear he will refuse ANC’s idea to form a delegation of negotiators.

“In general, the president’s response was clear, in particular he said “yes” to the dialogue and “no” to delegations,” Safaryan stressed, wondering about ANC’s statements that Serzh Sargsyan’s statement was ambiguous.

As Armenian News-NEWS.am reported earlier, President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan responded to the issues related to dialogue with opposition Armenian National Congress.

“For the forces, which are concerned with the problems of our citizens and development of our state, the only logical and acceptable way to move forward and find solutions to the existing difficulties is dialogue and discussions. I would like to restate: we have always been open and ready for any kind of discussion. If there are political forces, which have concrete and reasonable proposals, we are ready to provide concrete solutions,” he said in the statement.

In response to the President’s statement, the Armenian National Congress said it should discuss the thesis by Serzh Sargsyan at its regional structures, calling it ambiguous.
