`It should be noted that businessmen normally stand beside the
government and the state. Take any historical period, any
country. This is a regular thing, and maybe they had an inner feeling
how things would develop, and made a decision relying on talks between
them,’ stated Garnik Isagulyan, adviser to president, May 20,
commenting on the step of the businessmen who quit the Orinats Yerkir
Party. He says there was no pressure on these businessmen, and there
is no evidence to it either. `If there were pressure, there would be a
leak to the press. There is no such thing,’ says Garnik Isagulyan,
adding that he meets with everyone, and would know if there was
pressure. Garnik Isagulyan says if someone who remain in Orinats
Yerkir asserts the opposite, he is ready to apologize in the presence
of reporters. This is to confer.

WITNESSES OF THE QUEST

Garnik Isagulyan, adviser to president, said he can see no danger of
having a parliament of oligarchs. The parliamentary election in 2007
is concerned, and the entire company of oligarchs is preparing for it
at full, at full and with all its political parties. Garnik Isagulyan
considers the establishment of political parties by oligarchs because
we do not have an established sphere of political parties. `A quest is
underway in Armenia, and I thinkthis phenomenon is normal in the
context of this quest,’ says the adviser to the president. He says
Armenia is a small country, and even a man with a small property is
referred to as an oligarch. Garnik Isagulyan says oligarchs enter
parliaments in different countries, and this should be accepted
normally.
