YEREVAN, APRIL 11, NOYAN TAPAN. By now the Republican Party of Armenia
had set itself the task to receive a bit more than the mandates
it has at the moment, while henceforth the party should strive
for making absolute majority in the parliament. Galust Sahakian,
Head of National Assembly RPA faction, stated at the April 11 press
conference. In his words, RPA, which has both financial base and
experience of many years, is again "ready to assume the burden of
power and the whole responsibility."
In G. Sahakian’s words, today parties not having a big political
capital "make revelations about the future, turn into story-tellers
and raising people, pave the way for disappointment after the
elections." They try to form an opinion that if the elections are fair,
they will take the first place. While, in G. Sahakian’s words, these
political forces pretending on making absolute majority neither have
sufficient number of figures on the proportional list nor candidates
registered by the majoritarian system.
As regards Bargavach Hayastan, in G. Sahakian’s words, though it
is newly created, nevertheless, figures playing a serious role in
modern Armenia are included in the party. He agreed to the forecasts
that having sufficient number of seats in the parliament after the
elections, Bargavach Hayastan will cooperate with RPA "for the economic
growth to make Armenia prosper."
Touching upon the elections of Armavir Mayor where Bargavach Hayastan
litigated the victory of RPA’s candidate at the court, G. Sahakian
said that this "was formation of new preelectoral culture when the
political force having levers did not intervene into the judicial
procedures." It should be just like this during the whole elections
process, Head of RPA faction assured.
In G. Sahakian’s words, in RPA’s agitation campaign Chairman of Party
Board Serge Sargsian will play the greatest role. It was also mentioned
that the Prime Minister will not take a leave, but will take part in
agitation at non-working hours.
