Tert.am
09.12.11
At his Dec. 9 meeting with journalists, Hmayak Hovhannisyan, Chairman
of the Union of Political Scientists, answered a question about the
possibility of the Prosperous Armenian Party (PAP) accepting a proposal
for cooperation by the opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC).
"The PAP has an advantage over the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA)
and ANC. The salt is competition between the parties. The PAP is a
more preferable partner for both the ANC and RPA.
"It would be short-sighted on the PAP's part to use its advantage,"
the expert said.
PAP Chairman Gagik Tsarukyan is not so short-sighted as to "close
the door opened by Levon Ter-Petrosyan." On the other hand, he will
not secede from the coalition.
In his turn, Rafik Petrosyan of the RPA parliamentary group, voiced
the opinion that Ter-Petrosyan;'s proposal was a attempt to drive a
wedge between the RPA and PAP. However, the PAP is committed to the
coalition memorandum, he said.
