Today panorama.am asked People's Power president Manuk Kasparyan if
there was in fact an oppositional member whom he would not support
if the member became a united candidate, taking into account there
are those in the opposition he doesn't always agree with.
Referring to this, Kasparyan says he is ready to accept any
candidate agreed upon by the opposition. To the question of whether
he considers himself as a possible candidate, being he is free of the
burdens some in the opposition carry, he said, "I don't see that as a
possibility. Freeing ourselves of this regime is the only alternative."
As to the question of who he sees winning against the government
candidate, Kasparyan preferred not to state his opinion, as he is
preparing to participate in a meeting of oppositional leaders, and
that it wouldn't be appropriate to give anyone's name at this point.
Even though not wanting to offer any name, when talking about Raffi
Hovhannisian, he said, "If Raffi Hovhannisian doesn't see defeat in
the August 26 election in District 15, he stands an excellent chance
of becoming president."
