/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Head of Republican party Arayik Hovhannisyan has
today told a press conference that their party is very seriously
preparing for upcoming elections of Mayor and Aldermen’s Council of
Yerevan. "Republican is experienced in governing separate districts of
Yerevan, as can be seen in the party’s list. That’s why, our principal
goal is to ensure swift transition to a new electoral model," RPA
representative said.

Mr. Hovhanisyan considers upcoming elections an administrative
event. That’s why, the party’s pre-election program aims to provide
solution to such problems as repairing yards, planting greenery and
developing sports and culture.

When asked by a PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent about possibility of
forming coalition prior to elections, Hovhannisyan noted that law
allows parties to take such measures no less than 10 days before
elections. "There are currently no discussions over the issue. The
party lists registered in RA Central Election Commission remain
unchanged," he said.
