YEREVAN. –  Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan made attempts to persuade former PM Tigran Sargsyan to answer reporters' questions, although the latter refused.

Reporters gathered near the sport and concert complex where the fifteenth congress of the  Republican Party of Armenia was about to kick off.
 
“I am sorry, but I will not answer the questions,” Sargsyan told reporters.

Abrahamyan asked former PM to say a few words, but Sargsyan apologized once again and left the reporters empty-handed.
