According to Zhoghovurd daily, Armenian National Congress (ANC) has given its precinct election commission seats for September 9 local elections in city of Kapan to the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA). Moreover, ANC representative Rafik Asryan has urged the voters to cast their ballots for RPA member Ashot Hayrapetyan in the mayoral race.

Thus, ANC and RPA have formed a coalition in Armenia’s Syunik province.

However, asked by the paper’s reporter if the information is true to fact, ANC member Vahagn Khachatryan said it was the first time he had heard such a thing.
