YEREVAN, MAY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. "We today have a parliament where one
person will decide all results of the NA vote," Hrant Khachatrian, the
Chairman of the Constitutional Right Union stated at the May 16 press
conference. In his words, newly-elected head of the Republican Party
of Armenia (RPA) Serge Sargsian decided still before the elections
that the many-party system is harmful for the country, putting a task
to have "the control package of votes" at the National Assembly. "And
those good-natured conversations that they will involve other parties,
form a government of national agreement, are only task of taste,"
the CRU Chairman said.
Considering the results of the May 12 parliamentary elections
as painted ones, H. Khachatrian at the same presented its own,
"retouched" variant of the staff of the parliament of Armenia he
has dreamt of. According to it, as a ruling resource at the NA, it
would be enough to give 30% of places to RPA and Bargavach Hayastan
(Prosperous Armenia) party, 8% to each of the Zharangutiun (Heritage),
Hanrapetutiun (Republic) parties, Nor Zhamanakner (New Times), People's
Party of Armenia and Impeachment alliance. "I would prefer to hold
free and fair elections for the other 30%," H. Khachatrian mentioned.
