YEREVAN, MAY 2, NOYAN TAPAN. "It is wrong to estimate the National
Assembly elections as the pre-period of the president's elections. But
one must take into consideration that the parliamentary elections will
have an exclusive meaning for the president's elections. RA National
Assembly Speaker, Council member of the Republican Party of Armenia
Tigran Torosian stated about it at the May 2 press conference.
He expressed a confidence that the RPA will have an important role
at the new parliament. Responding the question if the RPA will alone
make the government if it has a qualified majority at the parliament
as a result of the elections, T. Torosian said: "The RPA does not
hurry to give estimations, we can wait three weeks."
Touching upon the statements of some opposing figures as if a
post-electoral struggle is also expected after the elections,
the NA Speaker mentioned "Any elections are always followed by the
post-electoral period. And as for coloured revolutions, the life showed
that people in Armenia more seriously relate to political processes
than in other countries." In T. Torosian's words, the life also
showed that the existing problems were not solved but the opposite,
became more difficult in those countries where coloured revolutions
took place, particularly, in Georgia and Ukraine.
