YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 4, ARMENPRESS: A senior member of an opposition
party spoke today against political discourse highlighting upcoming
presidential elections and the opposition groups’ attempts to agree
on a single candidate, saying a right assessment of the country’s
social-economic conditions and political situation was more important.
Koryun Arakelian, a member of the governing board of the National
Unity of Artashes Geghamian, reconfirmed media reports that Artashes
Geghamian met the other day with ex-president Levon Ter-Petrosian to
discuss social-economic and political issues.
"I think if Artashes Geghamian decides to run for presidency Levon
Ter-Petrosian will endorse him," Arakelian said .
He said the National Unity will decide during a late September congress
whether to join the presidential race alone or in an alliance with
other groups.
