No elections are scheduled in Karabakh. In Armenia, however, the
presidential election is drawing nearer. The ARF Dashnaktsutyun decided
to nominate a candidate, and is going to choose a candidate between
two nominees. Recently, however, the ARF Dashnaktsutyun has been said
to give up the idea of nominating president forced by the political
situation in Armenia, and will support one of the "main" candidates.
Davit Ishkhanyan, representative of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun Central
Committee, commented on this for Karabakh-Open.com.
"I was surprised to hear about it. I think those are mere rumors. We
commend the decision to nominate president, which was made in the
General Meeting held in Karabakh. I do not think that the decisions of
the meeting will be cancelled. Moreover, on November 30 the Supreme
Body of Armenia will hold a meeting in Yerevan where the candidate
of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun will become known. I think it is going to
be a difficult choice because both candidates are worthy."
