Since the parliamentary elections the political powers are waiting to see what the new government will be like. In fact most of all the political powers and governmental powers are interested in it because ultimately citizens do not care who will be in the new government because it will not change anything. Political powers that are not in the government do not care about it either because they are not in the government, nor they have interest in it. In any case this expectation is going to have a very negative impact on the government model of Armenia, which is in a poor condition now. Starting from the beginning of this year, when political powers started to campaign, the government system had in fact dissolved, i.e. state institutions were working not for the purposes of state interests, but for the purposes of the political powers interests the heads of those institutions were representing. The proof is the fact that the RPA, PA and LS parties won the elections mainly and mostly due to the fact that they had state institutions under their control and they used administrative resources. At this point all state institutions are far from doing their role because their managers and leaders are going to be replaced soon. However, this does not bring an end to the election campaign within the state system, but it makes it even more intensive. Everyone knows that appointed officials and their teams will have a probation period of 9-10 months, and it depends up to their work and whether they will be able to work for the purpose of supporting the president be re-elected whether they will continue working in their positions. Everyone working in state institutions thinks and speaks about this. In other words, the state system, which does not work well normally, is not doing its functions even more as the people working there are focused on elections and relative preparations. By the way, the presidential election 2013 will be followed by Yerevan community council elections in spring of the same year, which will be probation for the staff f Yerevan municipality. In other words, for minimum one year the state system will not be working and will be serving as a pre-election headquarter to make sure the government keeps the power. The prime-minister will be the head of that headquarter as long as Hovik Abrahamyan does not take that role again. That process will continue as long as the government’s “truth does not get sick”, but does not die either.
