KARABAKH PRESIDENT SEEKING OPPOSITION SUPPORT FOR RE-ELECTION BID?
Faced with a marked decline in his popularity rating in the run-up to
presidential elections scheduled for 11 August, Arkadii Ghukasian is
holding confidential talks with representatives of the Armenian
Revolutionary Federation-Dashnaktsutiun (HHD), which is the
opposition faction in the unrecognized republic's parliament,
according to the Yerevan newspaper "Iravunk" of 11 June, as cited by
Groong. Ghukasian has reportedly offered the HHD five portfolios in
the next government in exchange for its support for his bid for
re-election; the party has not yet responded to that offer. LF
