Ruling Republican Party’s (RPA) faction MP Samvel Alexanyan will vote in favor of “the people’s candidate” for the position of Prime Minister of Armenia.
“I have decided to vote in favor of the people’s candidate”, the lawmaker told reporters in the Parliament.
Asked whether this means that he supports Yelk faction head Nikol Pashinyan’s candidacy for PM, the lawmaker said: “In other words, when I say that I support the people’s candidate, what does that mean?” MP Alexanyan avoided to mention Pashinyan’s name.
Commenting on Pashinyan’s statement according to which he will eliminate the monopolies if elected as PM, MP Alexanyan stated: “That will be right. I have no monopoly. I support his statement to eliminate all monopolies”.
