Haykakan Zhamanak: Significant changes in government unlikely unless new coalition is formed
The composition of the new government will be announced one of these days. Haykakan Zhamanak wrote earlier that the new government’s composition will depend on the results of Yerevan municipal elections. Rumors in power corridors suggest that Serzh Sargsyan could meet with leader of Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) Gagik Tsarukyan. Both Republican Party of Armenia and PAP said on Monday that they did not discuss the formation of a coalition. The Republicans officially announced on Monday that they are open for cooperation, but one wing of the party is categorically opposed to inclusion of PAP in the coalition. Significant changes in the new government are unlikely unless the sides reach a consensus.
