YEREVAN. – A new government is being formed these days in Nagorno-Karabakh. And although the government’s head—that is, the PM—is the same, there is no shortage of new ones. And this time Armenia’s opposition ARF Dashnaktsutyun Party has become more active in Karabakh’s political life than it is in Armenia, Irates De Facto newspaper reports.      

“The Government’s Deputy PM is Dashnaktsutyun member Arthur Aghabekyan, and Dashnaktsutyun member Davit Ishkhanyan will probably head the Foreign Affairs Ministry.  

According to some information, this is the very ‘price’ for supporting [Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) President] Bako Sahakyan [in the recent presidential elections]. And, in the future, Dashnaktsutyun members could be appointed to other offices, too.   

Incidentally, it is more noteworthy that [NKR’s] foreign policy domain is in the hands of Dashnaktsutyun members.  According to our information, from now on the Dashnaktsutyun’s organizations abroad will exert very great efforts within the politics of the very Karabakh,” Irates De Facto writes.
