ORINATS YERKIR PROPOSES BENCHMARKS FOR THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
Lragir, Armenia
July 24 2007
Member of Parliament Hovanes Margaryan, Orinats Yerkir Party, stated
July 24 at the Pastark Club the party agrees that the opposition must
put up a united team for the presidential election of 2008. Hovanes
Margaryan says the opposition should try its best to overcome divide.
However, he says there must be clear benchmarks for the candidate
which stem from the demands of the society.
"The past way, the political experience, age, perception by the
public, education, reputation in the country and abroad." Here
are the benchmarks the opposition should use to put up a common
candidate. The member of the Orinats Yerkir Party says the leader
of the Orinats Yerkir Party matches these benchmarks whom Hovanes
Margaryan considers as an organized, established politician who is
highly popular with the citizens. Hovanes Margaryan says, however,
there is no need to hurry regarding the definitive decision on the
presidential election. In answer to the question if it is possible
that before the presidential election, like before the parliamentary
election, more leading members defect the Orinats Yerkir Party,
Hovanes Margaryan said he rules it out.
As to the others who aspire to being the common candidate, Hovanes
Margaryan says often the circumstance of aspirations works rather
than the chance of these candidates to be the common candidate.
