Larisa Alaverdyan, Armenia's former human rights defender (ombudsman),
who is a member of Armenia's parliament of the 4th convocation from
the Heritage party, rules out any possibility of the Heritage party
forming an alliance with the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA).
"I will feel bitter regret if our team fails to consistently follow
the policy it adopted back in 2007. How well a new, pluralist, team
will do it - it is their problem," she said.
In 2007, the opposition that failed to get into parliament accused
the 7-member Heritage group of "not vacating their seats."
"Now all the [opposition] forces that got into parliament did not
poll more votes that the Heritage party. But I am glad that no one is
accusing them of 'not vacating their seats.' I would like to say that,
in doing anything, a political force should look at least five years
ahead," Alaverdyan said.
Without making forecasts about coalitions, Alaverdyan doubts the
formation of efficient alliances. She believes that, if formed,
they will be based on "political calculations" rather than on
"public interests."
"Were I the Prosperous Armenia Party, I would not form a coalition
at once," Alaverdyan said.
Not elected to Armenia's next parliament, Alaverdyan intends to carry
out public activities and deliver lectures in a higher school.
