YEREVAN, AUGUST 23, ARMENPRESS: The Alliance of National Democrats
has developed a program for conduction of fair, free parliamentary
elections. The leader of the Alliance Arshak Sadoyan told today at a
press conference that the program has already been presented to the
international organizations, particularly to UN, OSCE as well as to
the U.S. ambassador.

According to Sadoyan, for getting material assistance from the
international organizations it is necessary to involve wide public
circles during the implementation of the program. With this aim,
he said, a meeting will be conducted until September 10 with the
representatives of social, political, international organizations
during which they will present suggestions and discuss them.

Sadoyan said on the basis of the finally approved version a
responsible organizational body will be elected which will assume the
responsibility of the implementation of the program. Sadoyan said
that approximately 2.5 million USD will be necessary for carrying
out the program.

"The U.S. State Department promised to provide 6.5 million USD for
conducting fair elections, and for implementation of our program only
2.5 million USD is necessary," said the leader of the alliance.
