After the statement on the creation of a joint inter-party election
staff which not only the opposition Armenian National Congress, ARFD
and Heritage but also the coalition member Prosperous Armenia Party
joined, the country has been divided into barricades. They are not
so visible now but we should not doubt that as the election approach,
the selection will become more visible.
After the creation of the joint staff and RPA refusal to join it,
which automatically made the PAP an opposition party, the Republicans
remained at the other side of the barricade. Aram Sargsyan's Democratic
Party joined it, but this will hardly consoled the Republicans.
RPA stated on the next day about the creation of its staff in the
parliament, and David Harutyunyan proposed some rules. None of the
parties has reacted to the RPA proposal. And it turned out that
during the elections, the fight will be held between the two staffs
controlling the fairness of the elections, in addition, the RPA
appeared against everyone. There are grounds to presume that the
union of the parties will reduce RPA's possibilities.
On the other hand, the fact that the RPA itself will create a staff,
means it will try to find as many as possible breaches by the other
parties. This means that the RPA does not hope the election outcome
will be just drawn as it is usually done after the elections.
It seems there are preconditions in Armenia to abolish the monopoly
of one party to decide the election outcome. This may lead to
the appearance of undesirable phenomena, undesirable people in
the parliament but it is evident that the main task should be the
abolishment of the monopoly.
