According to 168 Hours, the intrigue of the first rally of three non-government parties consisted in the participation of Prosperous Armenia Party leader Gagik Tsarukyan, that of the second rally in the phrase “change of power” pronounced by Tsarukyan, while the intrigue of the trio’s next rally may be Tsarukyan’s announcement that Prosperous Armenia goes into opposition.

“It is not ruled out that at the next rally Tsarukyan will get rid of the last thread linking him and the country’s authorities and he will announce his withdrawal from the National Security Council. In the opinion of Prosperous Armenia representatives, then the conflict between the trio and the authorities will have different quality. For this reason, it is supposed that such statements will be made only after the leader of Prosperous Armenia becomes convinced that it is time to carry out a change of power. Yet no one can predict when this time will come since the Prosperous Armenia leader himself does not intend to take dramatic actions. The postponement of the next rally is due to this fact,” the newspaper says.
