Armenian leadership’s foreign policy initiatives allowed the country to influence regional developments, a member of the Republican Party of Armenia said.

“Although the authorities did not reach all goals, Armenia’s opinion is appreciated and taken into consideration in regional processes,” Mkrtich Minasyan told journalists on October 14.

As to the internal political situation, he said the rallies of the Armenian National Congress are merely attempts to attract the voters’ attention.

“The ANC will not garner even 5% of votes during the upcoming parliamentary election,” Minasyan said.
