PanARMENIAN.Net – New Times party leader believes current leader Serzh
Sargsyan and ex-president Robert Kocharian to have no serious
disagreements.

`To me, there were always close, like Siamese twins. As soon as the
change of current political system is on agenda, they’ll be back
together to counteract the attempt,’ Aram Karapetyan told a news
conference in Yerevan.

As Karapetyan noted, recent resignations were aimed to neutralize
politicians which could gain power even without Kocharian.

`Unwilling to become `the youngest pensioner,’ Kocharian makes every
effort to change that status,’ the party leader said.

Karapetyan advised Kocharian to set his sights on NKR president’s
post. `Kocharian’s accession to Karabakh presidency might positively
affect the Republic’s international ties, considering his connections
with Russia’s power-holding structures,’ the politician concluded.
