An enlarged meeting of RPA will be held on November  11, at which party participation in elections will be resolved.

ArmInfo. On November 11, an enlarged meeting of the Republican Party of Armenia will be held, at which finally will be resolved the issue of its participation in the  December elections.

Although, according to ArmInfo sources in the RPA, the issue of  participation has been resolved by 99%, at the meeting the decision  will only be de jure approved. But the proportional list of the party  is not ready, the first five of its participants are not even  defined, despite the fact that the media persistently predict these  places to former Defense Minister Vigen Sargsyan, Deputy President of  NA Edward Sharmazanov, another Deputy President of NA Arpine  Hovhannisyan, RPA Deputy Chairman Armen Ashotyan and former mayor of  Yerevan Taron Margaryan. "It's not so, the list and even the first  five are not defined. Perhaps it will look like the media  announcements, and perhaps otherwise, nothing is clear yet," the  source assured.

While one thing is clear, the candidates for the deputy mandate from  the RPA, included in the party list, will be forced to measure their  strength according to the rating system. The RPA head Serzh Sargsyan  himself made this decision, despite the fact that it did not appeal  to many Republicans. The old order continues to hold in the party -  Sargsyan, with whom he introduces his party members at the last  moment, once again makes the decisions, the same is true of the  proportional list.  Nevertheless, in official interviews, MPs from  the party come out with optimistic forecasts regarding the  possibility of the RPA to score double-digit indicators in early  elections.
