    SERZH SARGSYAN DEFEATED IDEOLOGICALLY, SAYS POLITICIAN

    Serzh Sargsyan, as a presidential candidate, can be said to be have
    suffered an ideological defeat, with the socialist forces being unable
    to fight the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), a socialist
    politician has said.

    "Serzh Sargsyan suffered a defeat because the socialists in Armenia
    cannot afford to fight the RPA with money. We find that the sum
    collected through our members - 32,000 US Dollars - will be spent
    uselessly," the leader of the socialist movement Essence of Time,
    Robert Aharonyan, told a news conference on Thursday.

    Aharonyan, who had earlier declared his plan to run for election and
    later gave up the idea, said instead of holding elections it might as
    well be enough to check how much a candidate has. "Why not restrict
    elections to a wallet and thus decide who the winner is?" he said

    But in the meantime, Aharonyan warned that such efforts will not put
    an end to their struggle. "We will struggle for not only nominating
    [a candidate] in the elections, but also a victory. We will also
    head to the National Assembly elections and all the other polls,"
    Aharonyan added.

    Asked which candidate they are going to support in the upcoming
    presidential election, the politician said they still have to consider
    the issue. "We will say in just a couple of days who we are going to
    back, but that will be the person who profoundly leads us towards
    Russia," he said, adding that it is the people's desire to pursue
    the path to socialism.
