Will HHK nominate Galust Sahakyan?
In about a fortnight the political parties will start applying for participation in the elections of the Yerevan Mayor scheduled for May 31. During today's briefings at the National Assembly, the coalition forces finally declared they will be running in the elections separately. No clarification on party lists was presented today. They promised to publicise the lists and the candidates for Yerevan Mayor next week. The Leader of the Republican Party (HHK) Galust Sahakyan says they are considering several candidacies. However, he mentioned the name of the head of Kentron community Gagik Beglaryan.
From today's briefing it became clear that the Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK) will not nominate its leader Gagik Tsarukyan. First, he does not want to be the Mayor of Yerevan. Secondly, he does not meet the law requirements, which says the candidate should have been registered in Yerevan at least for three years.
