“The ARF (Armenian Revolutionary Foundation) does not appreciate its friends. They have special love to do it after death, “said the member Alvard Petrosyan in an interview. According to her, the “Heritage” party leader Raffi Hovhannisyan appreciates his friends much better, than ARF.
Armenian news agencies asked the ARF member Vahan Hovhannisyan whether they had grounds for such insults. Mr. Hovhannisyan answered, “I do not see any offense there. I can see complaint, which may be partly justified and partly not. But it did happen in all societies.”
Mr. Hovhannisyan also answered to the question whether it is normal that the party member expresses complaint, he said that it is abnormal that she expressed her complaint later than needed. However he also noted that he does not agree with the statement of Alvard Petrosyan.
“People want to find a proper way to achieve something, some people entering the party, especially ARF, they do have an idea, which they want to achieve. They enter to serve and not to receive ranks. One should not have expectations from the Party. Of course, in some cases you can be disappointed, when you see that the deeds are not appreciated, but in reality you cannot think of it.”
