A number of deputies of Supreme Council of Armenia and
public-political figures call for not to participate in the
forthcoming parliamentary elections.
Deputies of the Supreme Council, Aram Mayilyan, Vardan Petrosyan, as
well as members of the initiating group of the party `Democratic
Armenia’ Narine Lazarian and Narine Dilbaryan, announced during the
meeting with journalists today.
According to A. Mayilyan, his generation succeeded to register a
victory in the Karabagh problem, but in the cause of the
democratization of Armenia they are defeated. `In 1995 we finally lose
the democratic Armenia. It was occupied by not democratic forces,
which is continuing and deepening up to date’, Mayilyan stated.
Considering the liberation of democratic Armenia as their duty, the
aforementioned figures with several colleagues, have come out with
statements, by which they call for not to take part in the elections.
`Not to boycott, as the boycott means their implementation. But simply
not to take part’, they explained. Karapet Rubinyan, Vahan
Shirkhanyan, Silva Haroutyunyna, Alexander Arzoumanyan has signed to
the statement.
In their words, numerous political forces and public sections will not
take part in the elections for absolutely different motives, and they
now have a task to amalgamate with the forces that do not take part in
the elections.
