“On Feb. 15 will take place Armenian citizens’, and why not, also a national, conference where we will determine the correct actions,” said People’s Party of Armenia party leader and ALM Holding LLC President Tigran Karapetyan at a press conference in Yerevan today.
According to Karapetyan, “correct actions” include submitting a written ultimatum to the country’s president, Serzh Sargsyan.
“The ultimatum will include not points and conditions, but a demand for early elections. Unlike HAK [the Armenian National Congress], I have to say, we are demanding parliamentary, and then presidential elections,” he said.
