ArmInfo."I do not think the Tsraukyan bloc is an opposition force," Spokesman for the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), Vice Speaker of the Armenian Parliament Eduard Sharmazanov told reporters.
"As regards the question whether we will set up a coalition or not, the answer depends on the results of the April 2 elections. The RPA has not discussed the issue of post-electoral developments with any of the political forces, except ARFD, which is the RPA's current coalition partner. A coalition will not be an aim in itself. The basis of all coalitions, especially in case of the parliamentary form of government, should be a common vision. The RPA has no intention to create a coalition with any force without a common vision," he said.
To note, Gagik Tsarukyan initially stated the impossibility of joining a coalition with the RPA. Yesterday, however, he revised his decision and said that he does not rule out such developments if the RPA is ready to implement the 15 provisions of the Tsarukyan bloc's program.
Earlier, Tsarukyan had joined the coalition with the RPA twice, but then he left it twice for various reasons.
