We traveled more than usual and were very tired, and the presence of our partners gave us great energy and empowerment. I express special gratitude to the territorial organization of the “Civil Contract” party”.

I just want to note that this visit was very important to us”.
To the question whether the “Yelq” bloc is going to be dissolved, Pashinyan responded: “I think the “Yelq” bloc should overcome the disagreements. The will of the voters of the “Yelq” bloc and the voters’ point of view should win in this process. As the head of the “Yelq” faction, I also consider myself the guarantor of that process, that no one can bypass or ignore the political messages of the voters voiced during the process”.
