Powerful opposition will emerge in Armenia “very soon”, says Kocharyan
Yerevan /Mediamax/. Powerful opposition forces are coming together to challenge Armenia’s new leadership “very soon”, former president of Armenia Robert Kocharyan said in written answers to questions sent by Reuters earlier this week.
Imprisoned since December of 2018, Kocharyan has told Reuters that new politicians and opposition parties were emerging in Armenia.
“This process will certainly lead to the creation of a powerful political force capable of challenging the authorities very soon,” he noted.
Asked if he would be personally involved in the emerging opposition, Robert Kocharyan replied: “Yes, of course.” But he did not give details about what form that involvement could take.
