MP Zaruhi Postanjyan steps down from Heritage Party

YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 20, ARMENPRESS. Lawmaker of the Armenian Parliament Zaruhi Postanjyan announced resigning from the Heritage Party.

The MP released a statement on Facebook, saying: “Dear Heritage members, the Heritage Party’s principle, ideological and program gap with its declared and passed political track is an obvious fact, which led to refusing the principles, ideology and program adopted by the Party. The abovementioned fact has made my membership to the Heritage Party incompatible for realizing political activity. I am informing you that I am terminating my membership to the Heritage party. At the same time, I appreciate the joint work of over 10 years and the path which we have passed together.

The Heritage Party decided to take part in the parliamentary election by an alliance, and Zaruhi Postanjyan was against this decision from the beginning. She was in favor of taking part in the election alone, or not taking part at all.
