During the war, there is only an external enemy for the “Republic" (“Hanrapetutyun”) party, it has no internal enemy. The leader of the "Republic" party Aram Sargsyan said this in a conversation with reporters on June 7, answering the question of who they are going to cooperate with if elected.

"The results of the elections are very important, those results should show which forces passed, in what format, and with what percentage they entered the parliament. We were not in favor of a parliamentary system, but such a soviet system forces to run elections in both East, Israel, and Europe very quickly because the authorities do not form a coalition, those coalitions collapse. And as a result of these elections, the formation of coalitions will be mandatory, it will depend on the number of MPs of the forces participating in the elections. Making predictions is difficult, it is complicated. There are situations when there is a war, when your enemy is on the border, in which case we do not rule out cooperation with anyone," said Sargsyan, adding that in non-war situations they will cooperate only with forces whose ideology is close to each other.

To the question of whether the "Republic" ( “Hanrapetutyun”) can cooperate with the "Armenia" alliance led by Armenia’s second president Robert Kocharyan, Sargsyan found it difficult to answer but noted that in terms of ideology they have categorically opposite approaches and differences, and it will not be perceptible to the public.
