The paper says the main parties of the political field have at least clarified who is going to top their proportional list but in case of ARF there is no even such decision. The paper says the discussions in the party both over proportional list and majority nominations continues. The paper says this situation has been caused because the ARF does not have a clear leader, head of the party. The daily says three members of the ARF – Vahan Hovhannisyan, Armen Rustamyan and Hrant Margaryan claim to top the list. The paper says the idea that Hrant Margaryan will top the list is not welcomed in the party. The thing is that Margaryan's recent confession that he is periodically meeting with Serzh Sargsyan has cast a shadow on the party and raised doubts among the public whether the ARF is true opposition or is just imitating. As far as on the other hand the ARF wishes to come forth as an opposition it should not include Margaryan in the proportional list and more probably the list will be topped by Vahan Hovhannissyan, who was presidential candidate of the party in 2008.
