Analyses of home political developments highlighting Robert
Kocharyan=80=99s aspirations to hold power are not true. This
sensational statement was made by Garnik Isagulyan, adviser to Robert
Kocharyan, on May 20. He said that the wrong direction of these
analyses is due to not knowing Robert Kocharyan. Garnik Isagulyan
assures that he knows Robert Kocharyan. Isagulyan states that Robert
Kocharyan devoted 20 years of his life to the solution of key issues
for state building, never appeared in a secondary position, was always
among the first. Introducing Kocharyan to the public, Garnik Isagulyan
said this person would never place his personal ambitions above the
interests of the state, and would never act for the sake of his
office.
The reporter of Lragir.am asked Isagulyan if this means that Kocharyan
will not run for the third term or become prime minister. Isagulyan
denied the third term, and for becoming prime minister he said time
will show that those analyses are wrong. Considering the third term
and the office of prime minister impossible, however, Garnik Isagulyan
did not move Robert Kocharyan, who is used to primary positions, to
the background. `I think he will have influence on the Armenian
political thought and in a much higher position than the prime
minister,' stated Garnik Isagulyan, clarifying that he does not mean
the office. And he leaves the office to Serge Sargsyan. Isagulyan says
he endorses Serge Sargsyan as the successor of the
president. According to Garnik Isagulyan, Serge Sargsyan is the
best-prepared figure in the political life of Armenia, and his
`inheritance' will help to maintain the present political line of
Armenia.
