Kajaran will hold mayoral election on September 9. So far there have
been no nominations. Current mayor, member of Republican Party of
Armenia (RPA) Vardan Gevorgyan is expected to announce his candidacy,
Hraparak daily writes.
"The source of Kajaran's political breath is the Copper Molybdenum
Combine, and therefore everything depends on Combine's General Director
Maxim Hakobyan. He also interferes in mayoral elections of Kapan and
Goris. During the previous elections, he backed current mayor of Kapan,
ARF member Arthur Atayan, but it is rumored that Hakobyan is going
to stay passive this time, therefore it is not clear whether he will
back RPA candidate Ashot Harutyunyan. Kajaran residents treat Mayor
Vardan Gevorgyan well. They say that Gevorgyan has passed through a
war, is simple and finds a common language with everyone, but he has
one shortcoming: he is a weak man," the paper writes.
