Vice-speaker of the National Assembly of Armenia, representative of coalition Prosperous Armenia Samvel Balasanyan did not rule out that the party may nominate its candidate for the presidential race in 2013.

He specified no particular name saying that everything will depend on parliamentary elections in May.
