Armenia: RPA, ARFD to reveal coalition deal ‘in coming days’

Negotiations over a new agreement between the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) and the Armenian Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktsutyun are complete, RPA spokesman Eduard Sharmazanov said on Thursday, May 4.

Addressing reporters, Sharmazanov said the document will be published in the coming days.

“RPA and ARFD will sign a coalition agreement for the years 2017-2022,” the spokesman said, adding that the party has yet to discuss who will be appointed to ministerial positions, as well as those of the parliament speaker and deputy speakers.

Sharmazanov and ARFD head Armen Rustamyan had earlier confirmed negotiations over political cooperation between the parties.
