SIM LEADER BELIEVES OPPOSITION WILL TAKE THE POWER
Haik Babukhanyan, leader of Constitutional Right Union (SIM), told a
press conference today that there are some healthy political parties
among the opposition and that SIM will form a majority in the
parliament together with these forces. Later, Babukhanyan predicts,
the opposition will take places in the executive and will win the
presidential elections in 2008.
Babukhanyan believes healthy forces must get into the parliament in
2-3 blocks formed according to ideological affiliation. Asked what are
the forces that may `conquer' the power together with them,
Babukhanyan answered, `We will stage the fight with those political
forces which are determined to win.'
Babukhanyan said there are also unhealthy political forces in the
political field, which are almost dead. He believes they will be
ousted from fight already in February. Babukhanyan refrained to name
those political forces. `Right now I cannot say anything. When the
time comes, you will know,' he said. Asked about Republic Party,
Babukhanyan said, `No, what are you talking about? Republic Party is
not such.'
In the words of Babukhanyan, the 3 blocks may unite around several
factors. The first block will compose of parties inclined to the West,
USA and NATO and will be liberal in economic dispositions. The second
block will postulate European integration and democratic values. The
third block will unite those forces that are inclined towards Russia.
Having pro-Russian dispositions, it is not clear why SIM signed a
cooperation agreement with Orinats Yerkir.
