The editor-in-chief of Beirut-based Aztag daily published an article in which he commented on Prosperous Armenia party’s refusal to join the new ruling coalition.
According to Shahan Kandaharian, the decision may bring about drastic changes in the country’s political field, becoming a counterweight to single-party system.
In this context, he noted refusal to endorse the leader of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), President Serzh Sargsyan at 2013 presidential race as one of the reason behind Prosperous Armenia’s decision.
The editor further brought another explanation, according to which the party’s step is viewed as a game, aiming to attract opposition votes.
In the conclusion, Mr. Kandaharian noted that public attention is currently focused on Prosperous Armenia as counterweight to single-party system meets the state and public interests.
