A BOYCOTT SET UP AGAINST THE NEW SPEAKER
A1+
[04:47 pm] 18 May, 2006
"Justice" Bloc made a decision about their strategy after the
resignation of NA Speaker Arthur Baghdasaryan and during the election
of the new Speaker.
The decision made at the end of one-year session was not accepted
unanimously. First of all the representatives of the "Republican" party
did not participate in the session, besides, Arshak Sadoyan, Chairman
of "National Democrats' Alliance", didn't approve of the strategy.
"I have always said and still claim that the question of alternative
approach should be taken into account.
NA isn't a puncher to decide who is a NA candidate and to participate
in that process with one candidate.
Anyway, it will be much wiser to propose several candidates for the
post, ask them questions, hold disputes and discussions, etc."
By the way, Arshak Sadoyan informed his partners of the bloc that if
they counter any problems they can nominate his candidacy for the NA
Speaker's post. Mr.
Sadoyan excludes the version of self nomination saying, "I am against
self nomination for any office.
I have always claimed that I cannot propose my candidature as it
won't look beautiful."
In Sadoyan's opinion there will be great surprise in the Parliament
in this connection as everything is possible in the country in which
lingers of pressure are well known to him. But Sadoyan didn't comment
on what he meant by saying surprise.
Ruzan Khachatryan, press secretary of the "Justice" Bloc, noted that
the party has no expectations connected with the nomination of the
NA Speaker's office as they decided neither to participate in the
process nor to vote.
The deputies of "Justice" will likely participate only in the
discussions to make their point of view audible. "Justice" Bloc didn't
take part in the 2003 elections either and won't do it this time on
the same grounds. The reasons are as follows; NA elections are held
with frauds and they don't go in line with the reality, thus "Justice"
doesn't want to be involved in those "inland intrigues."
By the way, another opposing power of the NA, "National Unity,"
has also decided not to participate in the parliamentary elections.
