President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan and former president of the state
Robert Kocharyan discussed the candidacy of Defense Minister Seyran
Ohanyan for the presidency in 2018.
Sargsyan told Kocharyan of the high probability of Ohanyan becoming
the candidate of the current authorities, regardless of changes to
the constitution, Trend reports with reference to Epress.
According to Kocharyan, Ohanyan's candidacy is actually acceptable to
him, but at the same time Kocharyan failed to promise that he himself
will not run for the presidency in 2018.
"The fact is that if the "Prosperous Armenia Party" and its leader
Gagik Tsarukyan will support Kocharyan, he is going to run for the
presidency. But if the PAP nominates its leader Gagik Tsarukyan,
then Kocharyan will support Ohanyan," the publication says.
