The Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) will not have a majority seat
in the parliament during the next parliamentary elections, Leader of
Peoples Party Tigran Karapetyan said at a press conference today.
According to Karapetyan if previously only 1-2 parties were offering
bribes with an aim to buy votes, now "99%" of the parties, except
the Peoples Party, are doing it.
In his words some 8-9 parties are going to participate in the next
parliamentary elections, and that is why RPA's expectations to win
most of the seats in the parliaments will not come true.
Further Karapetyan criticized the election system.
"In our country people are giving their votes upon their chiefs'
demands unaware that it is their future," said Karapetyan, adding
that the parties spend every effort to have local criminal personae
involved in the electoral race so that to use their authority for
gaining more votes.
Tigran Karapetyan also said he considered it unrealistic the
possibility of snap parliamentary elections.
