Yerevan /Mediamax/. Deputy Chairman of the Republican Party of Armenia
(RPA) Galust Sahakian stated in Yerevan today that "Levon Ter-Petrosian
does not even strive to become a President".
Mediamax reports that, speaking at a briefing in Yerevan today, Galust
Sahakian stated that the Ex-President strives to have the international
community "gaining grounds to condemn the Armenian authorities".
Answering the question on why he supported the candidature of
Ter-Petrosian in 1996, the Deputy Chairman of RPA stated that he
"stood next to Ter-Petrosian to keep the country from a civil war".
"We were trying to not let the people divide into two enemy camps,
as it is happening today", Galust Sahakian stated. At that he
condemned the actions of protest of the opposition, not ruling out
the possibility of collisions.
