According to Hraparak daily, recent behavior of parliament speaker Hovik Abrahamyan gave rise to rumors inside his party, RPA.

As his fellow party members insist, Abrahmyan has never looked so strained. The situation is explained by altered attitude of President Serzh Sargsyan.

“Abrahamyan’s position grew weaker, with public figures considered less strong to be moved to the foreground at current presidential race. Those associated with strength and violence will be pushed to the background,” the daily said.
