Republican party aims to become sole opposition force in parliament: Eduard Sharmazanov
The Republican party will more probably make a decision today to participate in snap parliamentary elections on December 9, spokesperson for the Republican party Eduard Sharmazanov told the reporters before the council session of the party.
“We have not discussed any issue regarding the list. I can say that I have never fought for a mandate and for being in the top of the list. The same I can say for Ashotyan,” Sharmazanov stressed, referring to the talks that the list will be topped by Vigen Sargsyan, Eduard Sharmazanov and Armen Ashotyan.
He also said in case of right activity the Republican party will become the second force in the parliament.
“Today the Republican has other issue, in 2017 it had another. That time we were going to gather 50-60% of votes and become absolute majority while today we are going to become the only opposition and hope to be the second force in the parliament,” Sharmazanov said.
He also said that the first ten candidates in the list will be nominated by rating system as well.
