According to Yerkir paper, leader of Republic party Aram Sargsyan will meet the journalists in the party’s office on May 11.

Rumors say that Sargsyan will officially declare he refuses the deputy mandate for the next parliament.

“It is not excluded that Sargsyan will even quit the opposition Armenian National Congress,” the paper reports saying it did not manage to contact Sargsyan who he does not respond to phone calls.

“Some rumors hint that Stepan Demirchyan, head of the People’s Party of Armenia is also going to put down his new mandate,” Yerkir says.
