Coalition forces to run for parliament separately
Vice-Chairman of the Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) Galust Sahakyan says the resignation of deputy chief of presidential staff Mikael Minasyan cannot be explained by other reasons than working. He recommends believing Minasyan who explained his resignation by an intention to take a post at election headquarters of the ruling HHK.
The coalition forces today referred to the preparation for the upcoming parliamentary elections. As the HHK vice-chairman said, the major political forces, including his party, are going to participate in the elections separately. At the same time, Sahakyan did not rule out that some forces may ally in order to be represented in parliament.
The other two forces of the coalition government - Country of Law (OYK) and Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK) - will also run for parliament separately. OYK faction head Heghine Bisharyan and BHK MP Vardan Bostanyan confirmed the information in an interview with A1+ .
Unlike the HHK, the other two coalition forces have not yet discussed the issue of pre-election headquarters.
