Political scientist Ara Papian opines that some candidates carrying out the RPA election campaign: Arpine Hovhannisyan (RA Justice Minister), Vigen Sargsyan (Defense Minister) and Taron Margaryan (Yerevan Mayor) actually will not run for a lawmaker.
“They will remain in the executive. They are brought to the campaign as they are comparatively accepted by the public and are not “perverted” figures,” said political scientist Ara Papian at the “Post Scriptum” press club. We were curious to know what opinion is formed about Prime Minister Karen Karapetyan, “He is also an acceptable figure, a sort of a “playboy” guy… The impression is that he acts not as a Prime Minister but a “playboy”, a good smile, a good “waistcoat”, but it is not the point… We do not see any improvement from his actions,” noted Ara Papian.
