YEREVAN.- The political forces are currently discussing formation of future coalition, said Director of Caucasus Institute Alexander Iskandaryan.

Leadership of at least six parties is discussing the issue within and between the parties.

“There are ready to sit at negotiating table,” the political analyst told journalists on Tuesday. According to him, it may be done through holding rallies, signing an agreement or in another way.

“The journalists are concerned whether Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) will join the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA). I am suggesting another problem: will Prosperous Armenia be offered to join the coalition?” he noted.

On the whole, Alexander Iskandaryan is confident that, despite majority of votes poled by RPA, a coalition will be formed.

Armenia’s Central Electoral Commission has issued the preliminary results of the May 6 parliamentary elections. Five parties and one political bloc will be represented in the 131-seat National Assembly (Parliament) of Armenia: Republican Party of Armenia – 44.05% (663,066 votes), Prosperous Armenia Party – 30.20% (454,684 votes), Armenian National Congress – 7.10% (106,910 votes), Heritage Party – 5.79% (87,095 votes), ARF Dashnaktsutyun Party – 5.73% (86, 296 votes), and Orinats Yerkir Party – 5.49% (82,690 votes).
