YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 8, ARMENPRESS: Parliament member Viktor Dalakian
from the major opposition Ardarutyun (Justice) bloc told a news
conference today the bloc is preparing to launch a nationwide campaign
to persuade voters to reject a package of constitutional amendments
which president Kocharian and his ruling coalition want to put to a
referendum in late November.
He also confirmed that the block is very likely to reconsider its
decision to boycott the parliament work ‘in response to people’s
demands to go back to parliament and expose the real face of the
regime.”
Dalakian also regretted the decision of several prominent members
of another opposition Hanrapetutyun (Republic) party to leave it,
saying united the party would be more stronger, but singled out one
of the dissenters, Albert Bazeyan’s assurances that if they decide
to form a new party it will act as an opposition force to the regime.
