Leaders of the three parties that comprise Armenia's ruling coalition
- Armenian President and leader of the Republican Party of Armenia
(HHK) Serzh Sargsyan, Prosperous Armenia party (BHK) leader Gagik
Tsarukyan and Orinats Yerkir (Rule of Law, or OEK) party leader Artur
Baghdasaryan - met on Monday evening at the president's office.
Speaking to RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun), HHK spokesperson
and parliamentary vice chair Eduard Sharmazanov said the coalition
leaders' meetings are regular events in the country's political arena
and the more the parliamentary elections approach, the more often
these meetings will take place.
As for reports of internal disputes (particularly between HHK and
BHK, as a result of which it is said BHK will leave the coalition),
Sharmazanov said: "If I am stating a conviction that the the leaders
of the three coalition parties will continue to meet, with that I am
also responding to your question."
Unconfirmed reports have indicated that a new memorandum will be signed
at one of these meetings; however, the HHK spokesperson didn't wish
to comment on this news.
