YEREVAN, JANUARY 18, NOYAN TAPAN. The opposition will create 2-3 big
alliances during the pre-electoral period, will become a majority in
the new National Assembly, will form a coalition and make a joint
decision on participation in the 2008 president’s elections. Hayk
Babukhanian, the Chairman of the Constitutional Right Union (CRU)
party foresaw this at the January 18 press conference.
In his words, continuing making a part of the "Ardarutiun" (Justice)
bloc, pre-electoral consultations are being held at present with
the "Orinats Yerkir" (Country of Law) and "Dashink" (Alliance)
parties. H.Babukhanian mentioned that the CRU will not betray its
opposing posture and will make an alliance with those forces which
are anxious with the future of the state. In his words, the party
can cooperate with both pro-European and pro-Russian forces led
by democratic ideas. He assured that the cooperation of the CRU
with ruling or pro-governmental parties is excluded. "Our party
has nothing to do with those political structures and unions which
strive for entering the Parliament for solving personal or narrow
party problems," H.Babukhanian stated.
