WHO WILL BECOME PRIME MINISTER: POLITICIAN’S OPINION

The Government which should be formed after 9 April is in the center of gossips and disputes. The major thing discussed is who will get the position of the prime minister after the oath ceremony of Serzh Sargsyan. To analyze the candidature of Hovik Abrahamyan, Karen Karapetyan and Tigran Sargsyan which are so much talked about in the local media, Panorama.am asked Alexander Markarov, politician and the director of CIS countries institute Armenian branch. He reminded that the candidature of the prime minister should be considered by the Constitution of the RA and see what it says, thus the president offers the candidature of the prime minister to the National Assembly who is accepted by the majority of the NA. Though four parties created political coalition the first step will be done by the Republican Party, he said. A. Markarov said that possibly the one who is accepted by the Republican Party will be named. But is the candidature of the mentioned people real practically? Markarov answered, The opportunities of Tigran Sargsyans candidature are not so high though it is long time he directs such important institution in the country and he is rather skillful in management, economy and finance. To analyze the current candidate from the point of politics, it is obvious that he has the skills common to the prime minister. As for the deputy Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan, it is quite possible that he will be proposed to the NA, said Markarov. The politician said that as the ongoing Prime Minister has already worked with the deputy prime minister, he could wish to see him in the position of the Prime Minister and continue their cooperation. But possibly he will be transferred from the Government administration to the presidents administration, he said. Markarov mentioned that there are little opportunities that Karen Karapetyans candidature will be offered to the NA. If we regard the candidates opportunities by percents then the image would be as following Hovik Abrahamyan 50-55%; Tigran Sargsyan 35-40%; and Karen Karapetyan 10%, concluded the politician.
