/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Undoubtedly, the West will try to have influence on
the electoral process in Armenia, but much will depend on how long and
how will continue Russian-Georgian opposition and what the outcome of
it will be, said President of CAR Ara Abramian during an interview to
The Novoye Russkoye Slovo. In his words, despite West's indisputable
military and economic attraction, Russia has more supporters in
Caucasus and especially in Armenia. "It is not accidentally that
all the political leaders in Armenia stand for close relations with
Russia. It concerns first of all to the first leaders of Armenia, to
President Kocharian and Defense Minister Sargsyan, who, by the way,
also occupies the post f Co-Chair of intergovernmental Council on
economic cooperation between Armenia and Russia," he stressed.
Alongside, he confirmed that he has close and good relations with
Republican leadership. "I appreciate Serzh Sargsyan as an effective
leader of the Armenian army, as a professional political leader,
and I am being imposed some of his business characteristics.
But the decision to support any of the parties in the elections,
probably we will make in January on the Great Council of CAR, after
we examine the political programs of leading parties, their ways to
solve the problems," said Abramian.
