    ARMENIA'S NEXT GOVERNMENT WILL BE PROVISIONAL - POLITICAL ANALYST

    YEREVAN. - The Armenian body politic is still under the influence of
    fear, and the citizen is unable to express his free will, political
    scientist Andreas Ghukasyan stated during a press conference on
    Wednesday, and stressed that the reason for this is Armenia's being
    an illegitimate state.

    "In my view, this government will be provisional. Both the opposition
    and the authorities have suffered a defeat. One was unable to bring
    about change while the other is unable to solve the problems and form
    a government on its own," Ghukasyan noted.

    He added that coercion became one of the tools during the parliamentary
    elections, and he predicted that the next government will be
    provisional, which is a defeat for the political system.

    In Andreas Ghukasyan's words, this notwithstanding, Armenia's civil
    society is gradually becoming more active.

    The press conference's other speaker, "Cooperation for Democracy"
    Center Director Stepan Danielyan, noted that a total administrative
    coercion was put to use during the elections.

    "At the same time [, however,] these were the best elections since
    [19]91," he said, and added that he has a hunch that certain political
    forces "send" special people "on a mission" to the society in order
    to control its activeness.
