Guess who has garnered tenth spot on the ruling Republican Party’s
proportional electoral ballot – no other than former Yerevan mayor
Gagik Beglaryan.

Beglaryan was forced to resign for assaulting a presidential advisor.

When asked about the nomination of Beglaryan, Republican Party
parliamentary faction head Gagik Sahakyan (photo; left), said that
“no one is perfect, being neither gods nor devils”.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
