The Popular Party is ready and can run in the election alone, stated
the secretary of the Popular Party Grigor Harutiunyan June 29 at the
Pastark Club. He noted that the Popular Party could have done the
same in 2003.
"At that time our aim was to bring together the political forces
to establish a common approach. We do not deny anything now, we may
run in the election alone or in an alliance. Time will show," stated
Grigor Harutiunyan. According to him, there is some time until the
election and the approaches will be made clear in fall.
Grigor Harutiunyan disagrees that the opposition is passive with
regard to processes underway inside the government. For the Popular
Party, he says that both the parliamentary corps and the members of
the political council meet with the population, they are going to
visit the villages. Grigor Harutiunyan says if necessity arises for
more intensive contacts with the population, it will be done in fall,
if necessary in summer too. Grigor Harutiunyan thinks that the other
opposition parties will do the same.
The secretary of the Popular Party gave an ambiguous answer to the
question whether the Popular Party would join an alliance, which
would not be led by Stepan Demirchyan. Grigor Harutiunyan says the
Popular Party has always upheld consolidation.
