Lead of Union for National Self-Determination Paruyr Hayrikyan
announced in "Urbat" club that he will participate in the elections
in an alliance.

Nevertheless, he has not yet decided which force he will join.

According to the leader of the UNSD, the worst thing is that
after 15 years of independence we are going farther and farther
from democracy. "The authorities have not been formed by the true
democratic way. I was the leader of the true democratic powers, and
I was banished. I was not someone extraordinary, but they realized
that they had to get rid of the leader", he said.

He noted that the history repeats itself. "Shamiram created that
Armenian Pan-National Movements, and Robert Kocharyan is creating
‘Prosperous Armenia’.

Parallels are not by chance. Today parties are not formed on the
ideological ground", Hayrikyan said.

Paruyr Hayrikyan mentioned that in any case the elections cannot be
considered fair as before the elections parties often give people
money. "Those who say the elections are fair, are eight accomplices
of those who fabricate them, or frauds".
