Whether parties will form coalition prior to elections

PanARMENIAN.Net - Head of Republican party Arayik Hovhannisyan has today told a press conference that their party is very seriously preparing for upcoming elections of Mayor and Aldermen's Council of Yerevan. "Republican is experienced in governing separate districts of Yerevan, as can be seen in the party's list. That's why, our principal goal is to ensure swift transition to a new electoral model," RPA representative said.



Mr. Hovhanisyan considers upcoming elections an administrative event. That's why, the party's pre-election program aims to provide solution to such problems as repairing yards, planting greenery and developing sports and culture.



When asked by a PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent about possibility of forming coalition prior to elections, Hovhannisyan noted that law allows parties to take such measures no less than 10 days before elections. "There are currently no discussions over the issue. The party lists registered in RA Central Election Commission remain unchanged," he said.
