PRESIDENT’S CANDIDATE WILL ALSO BE NOMINATED
Support A1+!“The second stage of presidential elections for the opposition’s united candidate is a variant which will show who has greater reputation and social demand”, announced Aram Sargsyan, head of the “Armenian Democratic Party.”
“Those who announce that they are the only unique candidates is their problem, let them find those who consider them unique. I consider that a naïve game”, said Aram Sargsyan and noted that he did not see that united candidate.
In response to ”A1+’s” question regarding how he estimated his opportunities as a united candidate of the opposition, Sargsyan said he did not want to evaluate himself and his role:: “We always talk about united ideas, and teach the nation that if a person does not represent everyone, then he is not the united candidate and that is wrong. Levon Ter-Petrosyan’s conception for a democratic party is not acceptable and if they are not with us they do not represent the opposition”.
Aram Sargsyan also talked about the authorities’ candidate and about possible developments in the governmental wing.
According to him, Serge Sargsyan’s nomination is guaranteed, but it does not mean that another presidential candidate will not be nominated. “If we probe why Vardan Oskanyan left for Pachevsk, where only presidents gathered, we’ll see where that path leads, and why the problem of “Liberty” has been solved and we will understand whose name stands behind it”, he said.
Aram Sargsyan considers that if the Dashnaktsutyun candidate was not from the party and was a very famous person, he would have a better chance to win.
“I do not think that may alter anything by a united candidate or a good proposal. If the same system is preserved during the presidential elections everything will remain as it has always been”, Sargsyan said and pointed that their primary goal was to alter the system.
Aram Sargsyan said to wait till autumn when the party would hold their sessions and then only he would make statements.
