    Armenian Liberal-Democratic Union Party to support Armenian prime
    minister's candidacy at presidential election

    2007-12-22 16:22:00

    ArmInfo. The Armenian Liberal-Democratic Union Party (ALDU) will
    support Leader of the Republic Party of Armenia (RPA), Armenian Prime
    Minister Serzh Sargsyan's candidacy at the Feb 19, 2008 presidential
    election, the statement made at ALDU's 5th extraordinary congress says,
    Saturday.

    The statement also contains an appeal to all the territorial divisions
    of the party "to consolidate in Serzh Sargsyan's pre-electoral
    headquarters". ALDU Leader Seyran Avakyan, the Armenian president's
    former adviser for territorial administration, stressed that the
    decision to support Sargsyan's candidacy was taken as a result of long
    debates. He also emphasized that unlike the previous elections, the
    forthcoming presidential election is special because after it the
    reformed Constitution will completely be launched and because for the
    first time contending for the presidential seat will be 3 political
    forces leading the country in different periods - ARF Dashnaksutyun,
    Armenian Pan National Movement (APNM) and RPA.Avakyan once again
    confirmed ALDU's adherence to development of small and medium-sized
    business and added that the party is expecting Sargsyan to make the
    country's budget of 2008 be replenish not by small and medium-sized
    business, but by liquidation of monopolies and shadow
    economy.

    To note, members of the RPA faction Galoust Sahakyan, Hermine
    Naghdalyan, Samvel Nikoyan and Mkrtich Minasyan were also present at
    the congress.
