Speaker Hovik Abrahmayan, who is also the head of Serzh Sargsyan's
campaign, after having voted today, was asked by reporters about the
possibility of the Prosperous Armenia return to the coalition.
Abrahamyan didn't rule out any format. He advised to wait for the end
of the election saying that everything is possible and this issue will
be discussed by the RPA executive board. This is an important issue
for Hovik Abrahamyan and he could not say anything else but not to
rule out the possibility of a new coalition. If he excludes such
possibility, he will rule out his chance to be one of the axis figures
of the ruling system of Armenia. Hovik Abrahamyan keeps his position
on account of the RPA-PAP relations. The unclearness of these
relations enabled Hovik Abrahamyan return as the NA Speaker, in case
Hovik Abrahamyan failed the previous election for Serzh Sargsyan. It
was then when the Republicans lost in Hovik Abrahamyan's hometown -
Ararat Marz; Republicans were defeated also in Shirak region, where
the responsible was Vardan Ghukasyan, whose curator is Hovik
Abrahamyan. No accident, Abrahamyan convinced Ghukasyan to leave his
office. And if Ghukasyan resisted, both of them would have left their
offices. Today Hovik Abrahamyan said he voted for the safe Armenia and
is sure that this election will record progress compared to the
parliamentary elections. Apparently, Abrahamyan means that this time
Serzh Sargsyan won't lose in Ararat and Shirak Marzes. No accident
Hovik Abrahamyan's brother, Jonik, instructed everyone to vote Serzh
Sargsyan and not to betray his brother. Comments on Hovik Abrahamyan's
hopes and expectations if Serzh Sargsyan preserves the office of the
president are different. Someone thinks he is striving for the office
of the prime minister. Perhaps Abrahamyan will be happy if he keeps
the office of the speaker. But all this is tactical expectations. The
main issue of the Speaker is harder: he is fighting for the status of
being Serzh Sargsyan's heir. At the end of Serzh Sargsyan's campaign,
during the final event, the incumbent president left the event
accompanied by the NA Speaker, Prime Minister, Mayor, ministers and
MPs. Everyone, except Serzh Sargsyan, had `Safe Armenia' scarves, and
Hovik Abrahamyan threw his one to the people. It seemed a gesture of
happiness and excitement, but in reality, he just wanted to be
different from the others and be similar to Serzh Sargsyan. It is of
no importance for Abrahamyan whether Prosperous Armenia will or won't
join the coalition. The important is that Gagik Tsarukyan has
`lessons' to teach always. Hovik Abrahamyan hopes to become the most
secure concession for the passage of the power in 2017-18: the most
secure not for Armenia, but for the current criminal oligarchic
system. For this, Hovik Abrahamyan needs Tsarukyan in the same role
for another five years.
