RA ex-minister of foreign affairs: Armenia’s main problem is political monopoly

Armenian ex-minister of foreign affairs Vartan Oskanian said that Armenia’s main problem is political monopoly.

Oskanian told a press conference in Yerevan that he negatively estimates the signing of the new coalition memorandum, as Prosperous Armenia party could become a counterbalance to the ruling Republican Party of Armenia, if it preserves its independence.

However, Oskanian did not exclude the possibility of creating a counterbalance system, if the opposition Armenian National Congress, as well as ARF Dashnaktsutyun and Heritage parties become stronger.
