Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK) leader Gagik Tsarukian on Wednesday again pointedly declined to clarify whom he and his influential political force will be supporting in the upcoming presidential election.
"Mr. Tsarukian will answer all questions at the right time," he told RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun.am) at the opening of a Russian-Armenian trade exhibition in Yerevan. The tycoon, whose Multi Group co-organized the exhibition together with a Russian firm, refused to comment further.
Tsarukian has kept politicians and observers guessing ever since effectively walking away, just over a year ago, from a 2011 agreement that committed the BHK to supporting President Serzh Sarkisian's reelection. That led to his growing tensions with Sarkisian culminating in the BHK's withdrawal from the governing coalition in June.
