NEW ARMENIA PM WILL BE FROM RULING POWER CIRCLES - ANALYST
April 07, 2014 | 12:56
YEREVAN. - Caucasus Institute Director, political scientist Alexander
Iskandaryan refrained from making predictions on who might be the
next Prime Minister of Armenia.
In his view, the names of a variety of candidates are circulated
either because of being uninformed, or intentionally, to gauge public
reaction.
At the same time, the analyst is almost certain that someone from
the ruling cohort will be appointed the new PM.
"I don't see any reason for President Serzh Sargsyan to go to
concessions with the opposition," Iskandaryan said adding, however,
that this does not mean none of the PM candidates being mentioned
will be appointed to this post.
Alexander Iskandaryan recalled that the problems which Armenia faces
today will not disappear with the replacement of the PM.
On April 3, Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan submitted his resignation
to President Serzh Sargsyan, and the President accepted the PM's
resignation.
