The political parties are too personalized today, and the political
developments often depend on the position and behavior of party
leaders, political scientist Gagik Keryan told a press conference
today.
As for the forthcoming presidential elections, there is a struggle for
the rating of candidates. Therefore, those individuals start weighing
what they will gain and what they will lose by participating in the
elections.
According to the political scientist, this very mechanism worked in
the decision of the leader of Prosperous Armenia Party Gagik Tsarukyan
not to run for President.
Head of the `Sotsiometer' sociological center Aharon Adibekyan said
Tsarukyan's decision to withdraw from the presidential race deprived
the opposition of the chance to unite.
