During a press conference held on Monday, member of the “Republic” political party council Suren Surenyants said that he considered that the party has good chances in the upcoming National Assembly elections.
“The elections will be victorious for us only if we use the elections as a means to get rid of the authorities in this faulty system,” said Surenyants. If the May 12 elections turn out to be fraudulent, then the “Republic” party promises mass public events.
“We want May 12 to be the day of democracy, liberty and victory. If this issue is not solved by means of the people’s votes, we will get our partisans and the society out on the streets,” promised Surenyants.
A week ago the political party formed the pre-election headquarters which is headed by member of the political party council Smbat Ayvazyan. They will participate in the elections with the “Let’s vote for the Republic” slogan as well which, according to Ayvazyan, is not only the party’s campaign, but also the system of values they believe in.
“We are participating in the elections with the main issue of getting rid of the faulty system of governance. Each ballot in favor of our party has the words “change of rule” written on it. Whoever gives his vote to the “Republic” must be certain that he is casting his vote for the removal of the existing rule,” emphasized Surenyants.
The political party doesn’t have the illusion that the May 12 elections are going to be fair, but they will try their best by means of motivating the society to “prevent the planned-out scenarios of the government or the total violations that they are trying to prepare.”
