In the field of the so-called pro-Westerners of Armenia, it seems that a final split has begun, or at least there is no unity in terms of the upcoming elections.
Let's remind that after the so-called "Eurovote" initiative, when discussions were already going on about how the pro-Western forces close to the government should participate in the parliamentary elections, one of the forces that are part of the alliance, the "European Party" headed by Tigran Khzmal Yan, left the "Eurovote" alliance, although Khzmal Yan himself was the author of both the initiative and its name from the beginning. Now, according to reports, quite serious disagreements have arisen between the "Republic" and "For the Republic" parties. On January 22, the "Republic" party announced that they will participate in the parliamentary elections, and their candidate for the Prime Minister, Aram Z. It is Sargsyan.
The day before yesterday, the party again convened a meeting of the board and decided on the slogan of the party: "For you, Armenia, for you". In fact, the information was confirmed that "For the Republic" and "Republic" parties will participate in the elections separately.
A few days ago, the party "For the sake of the republic" announced that they will participate in the elections with an expanded list, including non-party figures known to the public. In fact, this party wants to involve various representatives of the political society, thus trying to draw the pro-Western masses to its side, using the potential of the political society, and also to get support from the European structures.
To remind, it became known in December that the European Union will allocate 15 million euros to Armenia, allegedly, to "counter the so-called hybrid threats", and the main and main reason for the division of the pro-Westerners, according to the information spread, is the control over at least a part of the money to be allocated.
Such a split, by the way, can be a serious blow to the pro-Westerners in the parliamentary elections, because in this way any "pro-Western party" will most likely not be able to overcome the passing threshold.
