Sharmazanov: no comment on RPA candidates at 2012 parliamentary election

The ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) spokesman neither denied nor confirmed rumours that Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan will top the list of candidates at 2012 parliament election or the chairman of National Assembly of Armenia Hovik Abrahamyan will head the election office headquarters.

As Eduard Sharmazanov noted, the final decision will be taken at RPA meeting to be held late November or early December.

Commenting on the possibility of repeating Russia’s scenario in Armenia by offering Robert Kocharian’s candidacy at the oncoming presidential race, Sharmazanov reiterated the coalition statement suggesting support for current President Serzh Sargsyan during the next campaign.
