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.
