    TER-PETROSYAN IS NOT BACKED BY TEAM APPROACH

    It is difficult to forecast who will take which place, even if the
    ARF Dashnaktsutyun puts up a candidate, said Galust Sahakyan, deputy
    leader of the Republican Party, in a news conference on September 17
    at the Friday Club. The reporters tried to find out from Sahakyan
    known for his political forecasts which candidate may run in the
    second round with the Republican candidate Serge Sargsyan. Certainly,
    Galust Sahakyan says modestly he does not forecast but analyzes. And
    his analysis shows there is no force which could be an equal opponent
    to the Republican candidate. "I should note that Dashnaktsutyun
    approach is politically more comprehensive than the others'," says the
    political analyst Galust Sahakyan. He thinks, however, that no party's
    candidate can succeed alone. "Because we should be mindful of people,
    and it is always necessary to work with people," Galust Sahakyan says.

    According to him, the Republican Party will get the support of
    non-governmental and political organizations in the presidential
    election like in the parliamentary election. The deputy leader of the
    Republican Party who has taken up the new function of coordinating
    the local organizations of the party says they have a 60-70 percent
    readiness for the election,

    Although a few months ago Galust Sahakyan had stated the Republican
    Party will change its strategy if Levon Ter-Petrosyan is nominated,
    and the leader of the Republican Party Serge Sargsyan stated a few days
    ago the strategy will not be changed, Galust Sahakyan, nevertheless,
    thinks their statements do not contradict. He says Serge Sargsyan
    perhaps meant that the party will name president in any case.

    However, actions may change depending on the opponents, Galust Sahakyan
    says. For instance, if Levon Ter-Petrosyan is nominated, a change is
    possible, he says. The point is that the stronger the candidate is,
    the different the Republican Party's actions will be.

    And Galust Sahakyan considers Levon Ter-Petrosyan as a strong
    candidate, and highlights his strength in an ironical comparison:
    "He is certainly stronger that the Marxist Davit Hakobyan."

    Generally, Galust Sahakyan is reluctant to speak much about the
    nomination of the ex-president because he thinks he is not backed
    by strong teamwork. "They manipulated the issue but the political
    sphere did not feel a team approach to back our first-president,"
    Galust Sahakyan says.
