YEREVAN (YERKIR) – The Armenian Revolutionary Federation will present
its own platform in the upcoming parliamentary election and believes it
will get the support of the people.
The party will participate with its own candidate in the 2008
presidential election, ARF Bureau representative reiterated today. The
party’s list of candidates in the parliamentary election will include
about 100 people, with the number of those who are not member of the
party reduced to minimum.

The ARF is not going to criticize others to show itself in a better
light but will present its own ideas and platform.
Hrant Margarian believes that the time has come to make a serious
choice; it should be realized that today’s election would define the
quality of the authorities for the four years to come.

Margarian said that though the people still live in hard economic
conditions, but they realize that the elections solve issues of
tomorrow and not those of one day. The ARF is the party that is able to
solve those issues. This makes Margarian believe that his party will
get more votes than it did in the previous election.

"I think that today, the situation is that even those who do not like
us, will vote for us," Margarian said. "There are many advantages,
because no one in the ARF follows anyone else, no one can impose its
opinion to others in this organization. This organization is a living
and breathing structure, comprising those from the middle and deprived
classes.

This organization knows how to lead its leadership, it knows how to
restrain its leadership, and knows how to hold its leadership
accountable. Everybody is good before elections but they are different
after them. We cannot allow us such things because our ranks will not
allow us do that."

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
