YEREVAN.- It is still difficult to see who may become a single candidate from the opposition, head of Regional Studies Center Richard Giragosian told reporters.

Any political elections in Armenia’s modern history were preceded by partly real, partly false “consultations”, analyst said.

“We are witnessing a serious political conflict between the former coalition partners but, I believe, a single candidate from the opposition is hardly seen,” he said.

Giragosian is confident that oligarchy is Armenia’s main problem. In this context, former president Robert Kocharyan’s criticism must be welcomed although the system became oligarchic under his regime.
