of Armenia (RPA) plans to discuss the issue of electing the head of
the parliamentary "RPA" faction at its sitting late November 10. This
position has been vacant since the appointment of the faction's former
head Karen Karapetian as the chief of the RA presidential staff.
NT correspondent was informed by Edward Sharmazanov, member of "RPA"
faction, spokesman for the RPA (by the way, there were also rumors
about his candidacy in recent period) that it is impossible to speak
about candidates in advance as they will be nominated at the sitting
of the RPA board.
According to another NA deputy - member of RPA board, the most likely
candidate is the deputy chairman of RPA Galust Sahakian who headed
their faction in the National Assembly of the previous convocation
(2003-2007), as well as the parliamentary faction of "Unity" bloc
