A former foreign minister of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic, Arman
Melikyan, does not rule out the possibility that the authorities in
Armenia may agree to snap elections.
At a news conference on Friday, Melikyan said that some time in the
future the ruling regime may even find early elections advantageous.
"New tendencies are being observed on the political arena, and I
think the forces which now form part of the ruling coalition may
cease to be coalition partners in future. That being the case, the
authorities may find early elections advantageous," he said, adding
that the opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) may replace one
of coalition partners in such situation.
Asked which force may quit coalition, he pointed out to Prosperous
Armenian.
"That's what the current developments show," Melikyan added.
The politician predicted only a 20% likelihood of reaching an agreement
over snap elections as a result of the ANC-authorities dialogue.
