"Hraparak" newspaper writes:
"It turns out that during one of the previous meetings of the CP department, when Pashinyan said that we should elect the head of the pre-election headquarters for 2026, many CP members nominated themselves. Gevorg Papoyan, Arayik Harutyunyan, Alen Simonyan and others. However, during the last session, only two people were officially nominated: Gevorg Papoyan and Arayik Harutyunyan.
As a result of the voting, Arayik Harutyunyan received the majority of votes, although Papoyan is second in the results of the party board elections, after Pashinyan.
As for how Harutyunyan won the sympathy of the elite, they said that the heads of the staff are, as a rule, gray cardinals and they know how to go about behind the scenes.
