Ramkavar Azatakan party is not running for the parliament because it
has no "sponsors."

The leader of the party Haroutyun Arakelyan says that Armenian
businessmen sponsor parties in order to get parliamentary seats or
because they have relatives there. The political system of Armenia is
strongly monopolized, there is no political culture in our country,
says Arakelyan.

To remind, earlier Arakelyan said that he would run for the parliament
in a single-mandate district but now he is on the ticket of Dashink
party.
