    `TER-PETROSIAN HAS CHOSEN A NON-POLITICAL WAY OF
    STRUGGLE'
    [03:01 pm] 26 December, 2007

    `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.
