“Yes, PAP wants change of power”
Politologist Andranik Tevanyan doesn't rule out the possible ANC-PAP collaboration.
The political messages allow him to say that the PAP has its own political course. "The coalition memorandum that was signed is not working and couldn't work since it was a "dead" document. The elections for Ijevan mayor proved that the PAP will go alone in the upcoming elections and will try to maintain its course."
The politologist also touched upon Levon Ter-Petrosyan's statement at the ANC rally yesterday according to which the ANC will consider collaboration with the PAP, if it truly decides to leave the coalition.
Tevanyan doesn't think the ANC and the PAP can ever participate in the elections by being on the same list.
"To a great extent, I see the a large resource for consolidation against government. All the parties have different ideologies, but they all believe that the current regime must step down and that they have to work together without attacking each other. In that sense, it is very likely to see the collaboration between Ter-Petrosyan and the PAP, which will lead to change of power."
Does the PAP want change of power? In response, Tevanyan said:"I think the steps are showing that PAP does want change of power."
Unlike Andranik Tevanyan, politologist Ruben Hakobyan doesn't think the PAP and the ANC can take the same path and believes that the ANC will be rejected.
Hakobyan is amazed to see that the ANC is ready to work with the PAP. "Even if the PAP leaves the coalition, i don't think the two have the same circle of supporters."
According to Hakobyan, Levon Ter-Petrosyan is currently trying to do everything possible to form a part of government and says he sees that in the ANC leader's speeches at every rally.
