SERGE SARGSIAN DOES NOT AGREE THAT FIRST FORCE SUPPORTING PRESIDENT
KOCHARIAN IS BARGAVACH HAYASTAN PARTY
YEREVAN, JULY 21, NOYAN TAPAN. RA Defence Minister Serge Sargsian does
not share the opinion, according to which the first force supporting
President Kocharian is the Bargavach Hayastan (Prosperous Armenia)
party.
"Firstly, the Bargavach Hayastan is not a party yet, as far as I
know, it has not held a congress yet. And secondly, where do you
see manifestation of its political support of the President?," Serge
Sargsian said in his interview to radio Liberty.
As the Minister affirmed, "only a force having formed as a political
force and having influence in the political sphere, represented in
the Armenian governmental bodies, at the National Assembly can speak
about a political support, unless it corresponds to these criteria,
what support can be spoken about?"
"As for the issue, whether the Republican Party of Armenia will take
part in the elections together with the Bargavach Hayastan or not,
no issue of the kind has been discussed yet, we will discuss it when
it is necessary," Serge Sargsian concluded.
