“TER-PETROSSIAN HAS CHOSEN A NON-POLITICAL WAY OF STRUGGLE”
Support A1+!“The recent rallies organized by the former president’s team take a hysterical turn and break democratic rules,” Deputy Chairman of the Republican Party (HHK) Galust Sahakian said today.
When asked to bring examples of breaches and treachery, the latter merely said, “Attempts are being made to destabilize the country.”
It is due to mention that the HHK deputy chairman refrained from giving assessments to Ter-Petrossian during the whole press service. He only spoke of Ter-Petrossian’s team and the rallies.
On the whole, Sahakian is skeptical about the rallies. “A clear-cut distinction should be made between rallies and everyday gatherings,” the HHK deputy chairman advised reporters.
“Distant villages may believe that over 90-100 thousand people attend the rallies. But Yerevan civilians know that the square can hold only 20 thousand people, no more,” Sahakian said.
Republicans are not going to “backfire” on the first president as “the party's huge capital will promote the victory of their candidate.”
In reply to A1+'s question whether Kocharian no longer adheres to their team as he always responds to the first president's announcements, Sahakian said “Kocharian only refers to slanders.”
And why doesn't Kocharian answer Ter-Petrossian's straightforward question, “Where are the 148 million dollars?”
“We should also pose a question, “Where is the mazut?” Sahakian said in answer.
According to Galust Sahakian the first president has chosen a non-political way of struggle and the Republicans don't want to be engaged in it.
“The Republican Party has a rich cadre bank, and Robert Kocharian has a leading position there,” Galust Sahakian said.
At the same time, the member of the Republican Party said the party has not discussed the issue of nomination of Robert Kocharian for the post of prime minister. The party will name the future prime minister after the presidential election.
