YEREVAN, JUNE 5, NOYAN TAPAN. According to observation of Board
member of Republican Party of Armenia, Galust Sahakian, every time
after elections a stage of serious discussions over formation of
machinery of State starts in the home political sphere. As the latter
said at the June 5 meeting with journalists, after these elections
also negotiations among parties proceed in the stormy way. Their
peculiarity, in G. Sahakian's words, is that presidential elections
are expected in nine months: a fact that has an impact on positions
of forces included in the parliament.
G. Sahakian said that RPA has common program verges with Bargavach
Hayastan and ARFD. As the RPA member mentioned, currently there are
"fragmental agreements" with ARFD and if ARFD is not included in
the coalition, RPA will implement "fragmental cooperation" with
ARFD. G. Sahakian explained that this means to cooperate in certain
spheres, for instance, in social sphere or sphere of foreign policy.
In response to the question, whether for being included in the
coalition with RPA ARFD should support Serge Sargsian's candidature at
the 2008 presidential elections, G. Sahakian said that there should
not be disagreements over main issues (in this case S. Sargsian's
candidature: NT) among forces included in the same coalition who are
going to pass 5-year way with one another. In RPA representative's
words, presence of such disagreements is just absurd. G. Sahakian
found it difficult to answer the question, whether ARFD will become
an opposition party in case of being left out of the coalition.
Touching upon the opposition, G. Sahakian stated that the reason of
oppositionists' deafeat is their disability to work with the people.
Zharangutiun Party, which G. Sahakian considers "competitor
opposition," in difference to a number of opposition forces not having
passed to the parliament, worked with the electorate rightly. In
G. Sahakian's words, he does not consider the number of votes gained
by Orinats Yerkir Party as a victory.
