    Does Hovik Abahamyan play up to Sargsyan?

    "A1+"
    26/12/09



    Leader of People's Party (ZhK) Tigran Karapetyan pledges to run in all
    elections in Armenia. He says he is mostly concerned over the
    situation in the political domain.
    "I shall never deprive our people of an alternative option," Tigran
    Karapetyan told A1+.

    Regarding National Assembly Speaker Hovik Abahamyan's statement that
    President Serzh Sargsyan will be reelected in 2012, the ZhK leader
    said: "It is Mr. Abrahamyan's personal opinion. Where would he know
    which of the candidates will be elected? Hovik Abrahamyan simply plays
    up to Serzh Sargsyan," said Tigran Karapetyan.

    Responding to journalists' questions, the ZhK leader referred to
    Artashes Geghamyan's statement that he had always supported Serzh
    Sargsyan.

    "People know everyone perfectly. For example, where is former Heritage
    member Vardan Khachatryan? I always speak straightforwardly," said
    Tigran Karapetyan.

    The ZhK leader says people don't trust the ARF-Dashnaktsutyun either.
    "The ARF-D was a steamer pulling a few cars behind it. The party can
    no longer pull the cars and people have lost confidence in the party."

    Tigran Karapetyan also predicts some changes in the Armenian National
    Congress. "The Congress has somehow softened and resembles a buttered
    loaf. It no longer speaks of the bandit regime. No one but me
    criticizes the regime today. I became a radical with my centrist
    stance. They say I have become an oppositionist but I have always been
    one."
