‘Dashink’ party leader Samvel Babayan does not intend to run as
a candidate for 2008 presidential election, member of ‘Dashink’
party’s political council Gnel Glechyan told ArmInfo.

He said that such a decision was made even during November, 2005,
meeting of the party. At the same time, he did not rule out that if
the oppositional forces cannot consolidate before the presidential
election, ‘Dashink’ party will possibly take neutral position with
respect to the possible candidate from opposition. G. Glechyan
added that ‘Dashink’ does not take part in periodic negotiations of
oppositionists. As he said, the matter concerns the recent meeting of
the opposition’s representatives in ‘Metelitsa’ cafe by initiative of
Paruyr Hairikyan. ‘First of all, we received no invitation. Second,
I consider such negotiations useless since it is not important to
‘Dashink’ party who will pretend to the president’s post. It is more
important to us for a candidate to represent a definite programme and
give guarantees of its implementation’, G. Glechyan said. He added in
conclusion that the final decision of ‘Dashink’ on support of one or
another candidacy will be made during the next meeting of the party
to be held before the election.
