Season for campaign tricks

15/03/2007

These days the Armenian political parties are busy with finalizing their campaign programs and figuring out the most powerful tools they think will help them to attract the constituency.
 
For instance, our sources of information say that the main tool of Samvel Babayan’s “Dashink” party will be their announcement that the next president of Armenia must not be originally from Karabakh. Accordingly, Samvel Babayan is going to say also that he will do his best to achieve that goal. Definitely by doing so they want to be separated from the Karabakhi clan in the Armenian government and get free of any critics connecting them with the governmental representatives originally from Karabakh. The next tool they are going to use is Samvel Babayan’s assurances that he does not want any high positions in Armenia. It is clear that Samvel Babayan will not say that he is interested in getting a high position in Karabakh, which is the president’s position. However, people know that this is what Samvel Babayan wants.
