YEREVAN, AUGUST 22, NOYAN TAPAN. "The whole political field in Armenia
has become opposition towards the people as currently the ambitions
of individuals are in the foreground." This opinion was expressed
by Shavarsh Kocharian, the Chairman of the National People's Party,
at the press conference, which was held on August 22.
In his conviction, the candidate, who will win in the 2008
presidential elections, cannot make any serious changes in the bodies
of the authorities even if he wants, since the competences of the
president are limited by the amended constitution. In addition to
this, according to him, the result of the forthcoming presidential
elections is predetermined.
As for the opposition's participation in these presidential elections
with one common candidate, Shavarsh Kocharian mentioned that "no
heat is added from the constellation of extinguished stars." And the
political forces, which support the return of Levon Ter-Petrosian, the
first President of the Republic of Armenia, to the political field,
according to the Chairman of the National People's Party, hope that
the field of the authorities will thus separate and that they will
receive an opportunity to bring their representatives to that field.
