YEREVAN. – Hraparak daily of Armenia writes: [Second President] Robert Kocharyan is holding a big gathering today; he has invited the heads of all his [snap parliamentary] election [campaign] offices, their members. The meeting will be held at 7pm (…).

We were told that there would be a big meeting whose purpose will primarily be one: first, to thank the heads of the [aforesaid] offices for their work done and result shown in the elections. No matter how unsatisfactory these results are, people have spared no effort and deserve praise.

Presumably, the meeting will also have remarks, analysis, mistakes and shortcomings will be talked about, as well as what they will do next will be discussed.

300-350 people will attend the gathering.
