The Irates De Facto informs that Vigen Sargsyan, the chief of staff of the president, who ran for parliament on the Republican list, is rumored to be a candidate for speaker.
Interestingly, there is a “precedent”. The speaker of the Russian Duma is Sergey Narishkin who used to be the chief of staff of the president of Russia.
However, Narishkin was close with the ex-chief of staff Karen Karapetyan who was replaced by Vigen Sargsyan.
