"According to this information, 17 parties discussed the names of three candidates - Vazgen Manukyan, Artur Vanetsyan and Hrant Bagratyan. Of these candidates, our strategic partner preferred Vazgen Manukyan. Moreover, according to this information, Vazgen Manukyan recently visited Moscow to discuss his candidacy," the newspaper writes.
It was noted that instead of becoming the new prime minister Manukyan may become the head of the interim government, which would guarantee the management of Armenia in the coming months without any shocks, within which free and fair elections will be held.
