On November 2 during the session of the RPA executive body is was decided that the RA National Assembly President Hovik Abrahamyan will head campaign headquarters of the leader of the Republican Party, President Serzh Sargsyan.

After the session Vice President of the National Assembly, spokesperson of the Republican Party Edward Sharmazanov informed reporters that in-party issues and issues related to the RPA convention of 15 December have been also discussed.

As a reminder, several hours before the meeting in response to reporters’ questions the RA NA President reconfirmed that on December 15 during the RPA convention the party will make a decision of nominating the incumbent President of the Republic in the coming presidential elections. He also did not rule out the possibility that he might be appointed the head of campaign headquarter of Serzh Sargsyan taking into consideration his ‘great experience in that direction’. However, he mentioned that the Party has not discussed this issue yet.

Let us recall that the Election Day is not announced yet. According to the Election Code presidential elections are held 50 days before the end of presidential authorities. The President of the Central Electoral Commission makes a press release on public radio and television on the subject of elections no later than 70 days before the voting day. The Election Day is a non-working day.

Let us note that President Serzh Sargsyan took the office on 9 April 2009.
