PanARMENIAN.Net - Head of Regional Studies Center (RSC), political
expert Richard Giragosian has characterized the rivalry between the
Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) and Prosperous Armenia as vivid.
As he told a news conference, the rivalry will become more vivid
after the nomination for president.
"The upcoming elections will be different from the past ones. With
fake candidates nominated before, the 2013 race will have no nominees
like Artashes Geghamyan," the expert said, adding that Prosperous
Armenia's decision on presidency won't affect the rivalry with RPA.
"There is no alterative candidate," the expert said, deeming both
the ruling party's administrative resources and the absence of
the alterative as the reasons behind the forecasted victory of the
current president.
Mr. Giragosian further voiced skepticism over the possible cooperation
between the Armenian National congress (ANC) and Prosperous Armenia.
