Yet another prominent member of the Armenian National Congress (HAK) announced on Thursday his decision to leave the opposition alliance because of policy differences with its leader Levon Ter-Petrosian.
Davit Shahnazarian, who held key positions in the government in the early 1990s, said he effectively ended his membership of the HAK in the run-up to the May 6 parliamentary elections. "I left the HAK's Central Office before the elections, in March, and discontinued my political activities in the HAK altogether," Shahnazarian told RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun.am) in an interview.
Asked about reasons for the move, he said, "Let's not talk about that for now." Shahnazarian did indicate, though, his strong disagreement with the HAK leadership's pre-election decision to cooperate with the Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK), which was a key member of Armenia's governing coalition until last month.
