Rumors came that the ministers and governors nominated by the Bargavach
Hayastan Party will resign soon. If it happens, it will mean that
the Bargavach Hayastan Party leaves the coalition.
Although the president of the Bargavach Hayastan Party conformed his
loyalty to the memorandum signed in February, the representatives of
this party state every now and then that the memorandum is not binding
and is not something serious. Perhaps the party has not worked out
its further steps, judging by the diametrically different statements
of the party leaders.
The existence of two wings inside the party is felt. One of them
wants to remain in the framework of the coalition agreements, the
other wing is for leaving the coalition. The followers of this line
refer to the popularity of their party. They claim that once they
leave the coalition, they will be able to form a bloc with the ARF
Dashnaktsutyun, the Heritage Party and the Armenian National Congress.
Or at least cooperate with them, considering that these parties did
not rule out this option.
Like the Orinats Yerkir Party left the coalition and gained
considerable political capital, the Bargavach Hayastan Party could
also take such a step. In the case of the Orinats Yerkir Party,
immediately after leaving the coalition, the ministers, MPs and
other officials nominated by this party defected. However, this party
did not collapse. On the contrary, it benefited in political terms,
and continued to have a high rating and political capital till the
signing of the agreement with Serzh Sargsyan on March 1, 2008.
The Bargavach Hayastan Party is in a similar situation. It is difficult
to predict the decision of this party. Unlike the Congress and the ARF
Dashnaktsutyun which have an ideological basis, the Bargavach Hayastan
Party and the Orinats Yerkir lack one, and their "political line"
is apolitical statements and practice. Hence, these parties hardly
make "political decisions" or never make them, and are limited to
situational solutions.
In other words, the BHP is hardly expected to make a political
decision. It may arrive at a situational decision, depending on their
relations with other segments of the government, and which wing will
outweigh the other.
