YEREVAN, MAY 4, NOYAN TAPAN. "The Republican Party of Armenia for sure
will have an absolute qualified majority in the new parliament." RA
MP Armen Ashotian, member of RPA Board, gave assurance at the May
4 press conference. In his words, today RPA is the political force,
which already has its elite.
"Representatives of our political elite have passed a long way and
are skilful," Armen Ashotian stated adding that the majority of voters
will vote for already formed and working political team.
Touching upon the election campaign, he said that "though some forces
wished to discredit the election campaign, it proceeds within civilized
limits." In A. Ashotian's words, political forces taking part in the
election campaign can be divided into two groups. The representatives
of the first group being convinced that they will get over 5% barrier
carry out their campaign in the balanced way, without addressing
any accusations and insults to their competitors. The second group
includes forces which realize that they cannot get over that barrier,
therefore they try to criticize and even discredit anothers.
As regards opposition's position, A. Ashotian said: "Some
oppositionists have just understood how good it would be if they
united," he said. At the same time, the member of RPA Board said that
the unification of Impeachment bloc, Hanrapetutiun and Nor Zhamanakner
parties took place not on the basis of ideology, but hatred.
