Ex-leader Ter-Petrossian unlikely to run for president – Heritage rep.

The secretary general of Heritage party is skeptical about the possibility for the former Armenian president, Armenian National Congress (ANC) opposition bloc leader Levon Ter-Petrossian to enter the 2013 presidential race.

“The decision might be explained by the hard times ANC is having. I don’t believe Ter-Petrossian will choose to leave having gained 5-6% of votes, looking back to furor his coming into politics caused,” Stepan Safaryan said.

However, the Heritage official found it hard to name ANC’s future presidential candidate.
