Yerevan /Mediamax/. Head of parliamentary faction of the Republican
Party of Armenia (RPA) Karen Karapetian expressed opinion
that "Dashnaktsutiun" will continue cooperation with the ruling
coalition, despite the statement of the parliament Vice-Speaker Vahan
Hovhannissian on his intention to retire.
Karen Karapetian stated in an interview to Mediamax today that the
decision of Vahan Hovhannissian is of personal and not political
nature.
Head of RPA faction noted that "Dashnaktsutiun" has not made any
statements on coming out of the agreement on cooperation with the
coalition, which, according to him, implies the preservation of the
current "status-quo".
It is expected that today the Supreme Body of "Dashnaktsutiun" party
will make a statement on the results of the elections. Candidate from
"Dashnaktsutiun" Vahan Hovhannissian occupied the fourth place in
the elections, gaining 6.2% of the electors’ votes.
