YEREVAN. - The memorandum of forming a political coalition between the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) and ARF Dashnaktsutyun contains a provision, according to which the right to nominate a prime minister belongs to the RPA.

Newly-elected deputy of the Armenian National Assembly (NA) Aghvan Vardanyan, who is a representative of the Supreme Body of ARF Dashnaktsutyun, stated the aforementioned, speaking at a briefing after the memorandum signing ceremony on Thursday.
