OLIGARCHY WILL BE UNDER HIS CONTROL
Today in the House of Chess, National Awareness Foundation organized a
conference on presidential elections in Armenia. The major idea was
that Serzh Sargsyan must become the president.
Yerevan State University department professor Garik Keryan spoke about
the multiplicity of candidates running for president. In Keryan's
words, since 1995 the guarantee of victory in elections has been not
ideas but unexpected technologies.
Speaking about first president Levon Ter-Petrosyan, he said that
Ter-Petrosyan differs from the rest of candidates in that he has some
layers and has experience in technologies. However, he doubted that
Ter-Petrosyan's material and human resources are sufficient to ensure
him a victory.
Speaking about Serzh Sargsyan's candidacy, Keryan mentioned that he
has serious political support and administrative resources. According
to the speaker, in case president is elected from another political
force, there will be double rule in the country which may cause
internal political crisis causing both the president to resign and the
parliament to dismiss. In case Serzh Sargsyan is elected, there will
be a ''rule of a strong hand'' since all the prime minister, the
parliament and the oligarchy will be under his control.
