Expert: New Armenia Front will not manage to mobilize people and change power

 New Armenia Front will not manage to mobilize the people and change power, as it is not a priority now, Stepan Safaryan, head of the Armenian Institute for International Security said in response to ArmInfo's question in a press conference, on October 22.  

He is sure that the Front members made sure that they cannot mobilize the people against the Constitutional Reform and decided to voice the issue of a power shift. "I am afraid, we will have a new Constitution after December 6, and no power change will happen in the country," he said.

As the Front is engaged in issues of secondary importance in the current state of affairs, he said, the political processes continue and the authorities will try their best to conduct the Constitutional Reference and pass the amendments. In this light, Safaryan says Hovik Abrahamyan as head of the Republican Party's campaign headquarters can use the administrative resources and political influence. 

To recall, two fronts "NO" and "New Armenia" have been established to oppose the Constitutional Reform in the country. 

To note, the constitutional referendum is scheduled for December 6.  By ArmInfo's data, Armenian Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan will take a leave to head the campaign headquarters. By ArmInfo's data, Levon Zurabyan, Head of the Armenian National Congress Faction, will head the "No!" Front. The New Armenia Movement has announced that its campaign headquarters will be led by the Founding Parliament coordinator Zhirayr Sefilyan.
