YEREVAN. – The ruling coalition’s junior partner, Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP), is actively registering, specifically in Vayk city and neighboring villages, its potential voters for the forthcoming National Assembly elections, by promising 25 kilograms of flour in return for their passport information, Hraparak daily writes.    

“The passports were collected beforehand at the PAP’s Vayk office; the citizens were given coupons, whereby they were to receive their flours upon presenting them several days later. 

As a result, the citizens actively received their ‘due,’ but not all of the registered received flours. [Only] Some received [them], whereas the others were given AMD 5,000 [approx. US$ 13] each. 

Incidentally, the Vayk residents were not displeased, since the distributed 25-kilogram first-class flour is equivalent to AMD 5,000,” Hraparak writes.
