There will be little influence on the Armenian presidential election
of 2008 from the outside, which will not be deciding, stated the
Republican member of parliament Galust Sahakyan, who held a news
conference on August15 at the Pastark Club. Sahakyan advised not to
liken Armenia with Georgia and Ukraine because from the geopolitical
aspect these countries are more important to the great powers.

Besides, Galust Sahakyan repeated that the change of government after
the national elections slowed down development in those countries.

By the way, Galust Sahakyan forecast that if about ten candidates
are names for the upcoming presidential election, there will be a
second round. But with three or four candidates the president will
be elected in the first round.
