Serzh Sargsyan made an interesting statement, saying he would welcome a unification of the revanchist opposition.

However, he immediately added a caveat, noting that the matter is complex, it is too early to make any decisions, and especially too early to consider going to the polls with a single list.

In other words, Sargsyan seems aware of his limited prospects, while his counterpart, Robert Kocharyan, may have slightly better chances, though still modest. Unification may be the only way for them to demonstrate some activity and attract potential sponsors.

Even if the outcome is awkward or unconventional, it could still appeal to certain backers.
