ArmInfo. "We have made sure that the existence of a snowman is more
probable than the nomination of a single-whole candidate from the
opposition," Armen Ashotyan, a member of the parliamentary faction
of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), told ArmInfo correspondent.
Asked whether RPA will accept Armenian ex-President Levon Ter-
Petrosyan’s proposal if the latter expresses a desire to meet RPA
representatives, A.Ashotyan replied: "The RPA has passed a long path
with the Armenian National Movement (ANM). RPA had been ANM’s partner
for a long time until serious disagreements on the Nagorno-Karabakh
problem arose in 1997, which became the reason of dissociation. I
think, RPA will accept L.Ter-Petrosyan’s proposal". Touching upon the
cooperation of three parties under the signed agreement, A.Ashotyan
said: "As we work with the Prosperous Armenia Party under a signed
agreement and ARFD cooperates with the two parties, we both are
responsible for the three parties".
