According to Hraparak daily, Armenian President Serzh Sargyan may appoint the former head of his administration Karen Karapetyan as Prime Minister.

“The question is: when will that happen – in July or 8 months after presidential elections? Both Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) and Prosperous Armenia party consider Karapetyan as an acceptable candidate to prime ministerial post. Official Moscow is also quite likely to approve his candidacy,” the daily said.
