Aharon Adibekyan, director of “Sociometer” social center, today had a press conference and talked about the upcoming presidential elections.
“The important thing is not the issue of PAP as an opposition, but the thing is from which side PAP will get votes. The aim of PAP is not to compete with Republicans, but to compete with the oppositional parties, and to get the second place. I should stress it seems to me that ARF is not going to participate in the elections and its votes may be delivered to Heritage and PAP. Then comes Raffi Hovhannisyan, leader of the “Heritage”. ANC hasn’t decided yet but I think it will also nominate its candidate and only PAP remains” said Adibekyan adding “PAP can make changes in the political life since its leader Gagik Tsarukyan is very prestigious. I should also stress that the authorities mustn’t be sure that they will win since anything may happen”.
