"Three opposition forces, People’s Party of Armenia, Republic,
and Alternative public-political initiative, have already reached
a preliminary agreement on the principles of participation in the
forthcoming presidential election," Nikol Pashinyan, Leader of the
Alternative initiative and Editor-in-Chief of the Haykakan Zhamanak
newspaper, said in his speech in the Liberty Square, Friday.
According to him, the above-mentioned forces consider that a
single-whole candidate should run for President from the opposition,
an opposition front and a shadow government should be formed. The
People’s Party of Armenia, the Republic party and the Alternative
movement are also going to take measured to attract other parties of
the opposition camp to this process. N.Pashinyan noted that on July 6
these forces will hold a joint rally to support the Radio Liberty. The
Alternative adherents also intend to meet in the Liberty Square to
listen to the Radio Liberty’s programs which are still rebroadcast
on the frequency of the Armenian Public Radio.
