Tashnag Rejects Hariri΄s Offer: We are Allied with Aoun, Skaff
Source: Al-Manar TV, 1-4-2009
The Armenian Tashnag party reiterated on Wednesday that it will be allied with the head of the Change and Reform parliamentary bloc in all districts and Minister Elie Skaff in Zahle, adding that the party will continue to reach out to all sides before and after the June 7 elections.
The party announced officially that it has refused MP Saad Hariri's offer of four parliamentary seats in return for voting for March 14 alliance's full list of names in Beirut 1, the Metn and Zahle districts.
"After studying this offer ... and during our second meeting with MP Hariri (last night), we informed him about the executive committee's decision to form an Armenian MPs bloc that will include five legislators" whose names were announced on Sunday, the party said in a statement.
The five candidates are: Arthur Nazarian, George Qassarji, Hagop Pakradounian, Vrej Saboungian and Krikor Kaloust.
The Tashnag party said the party will have the freedom to vote in Beirut 1, the Metn and Zahle based on its own convictions, to which Hariri did not react favorably. "The bloc will have free political decision-making and will play a nationalistic legislative role," according to the statement.
