    WILL HAKOB HAKOBYAN MANAGE TO DIVIDE REPUBLICANS?

    Member of Parliament Hakob Hakobyan, People's Deputy Group, has
    taken up the job of nominating the leader of the Republican faction
    Galust Sahakyan as speaker of the National Assembly. Galust Sahakyan
    announced May 22 that if he is nominated, he will reject.

    Galust Sahakyan said the Republican Party will nominate their
    candidate, and on the upcoming days he will nominate our candidate
    which is not going to be him. He also denies the possibility
    of becoming deputy speaker. Despite Galust Sahakyan's attitude,
    Hakob Hakobyan is nevertheless likely to persuade the leader of the
    Republican faction.

    "Within the upcoming five days we'll be trying to negotiate with
    Galust Sahakyan, and to find out how many members of parliament would
    endorse the candidacy. We'll try to see the correlation and try to
    nominate," says Hakob Hakobyan, ignoring that his step is against
    the intention of the Republican faction, which is likely to nominate
    Tigran Torosyan. Hakob Hakobyan thinks Galust Sahakyan will rule
    better the parliament, which is going through a transition.

    "In other words, in private talks many people suggest nominating Galust
    Sahakyan as speaker. But when there is a political decision, personal
    decisions are set aside," says Hakob Hakobyan from Echmiadzin. He
    assures that the nomination of Galust Sahakyan is his personal
    initiative, and the People's Deputy Group has not discussed this issue.
