The May 5 municipal elections were classical Armenian elections,
political technologist Karen Kocharyan told reporters on Wednesday.
"The opposition could gain much from the elections but it lost
much instead. Unlike the presidential elections, at these elections
the authorities, having learnt more lessons from the presidential
elections, worked more efficiently than the opposition," he said.
According to the political technologist, the opposition's defeat was
due to the fact that it failed to unite.
ARFD's elite also contributed to the party's defeat, Kocharyan said,
adding that the ARFD's Armenian leadership needs to be changed. The
defeat of the Armenian National Congress was natural in view of
the party leader's remarks about the necessity to carry out a
bourgeois-democratic revolution in Armenia, he added.
All Armenian parties need a change of generation, the political
technologist concluded.
