“Sargsyan’s fellow party members are announcing everywhere that their party leader will not enter the parliament alone, because his battle is not for that mandate. So, following the elections the Republic [Party] will automatically leave the [opposition bloc] Armenian National Congress.
We were unable to receive comments personally from Sargsyan regarding this news, since he already announced he will say nothing until the elections. And this demeanor is likewise a certain attitude toward the elections and their results,” Zhoghovurd writes.
