Haykakan Zhamanak daily: Former mayor to run for parliament?
11:09 - 09.07.11
The paper says former Yerevan Mayor Gagik Beglaryan is planning to run
for the National Assembly in the upcoming election.
Under immense pressure from President Serzh Sargsyan, Beglaryan
resigned last year after a scandal when he physically assaulted an
employee of the presidential apparatus.
The paper has asked a senior ruling Republican Party of Armenia member
whether Beglaryan would be included on the party's ticket. "The
party's board would consider Beglaryan's candidacy," Hovhannes Sahakyn
of the RPA board said in an interview with the paper. "Beglaryan is
still an RPA member."
