Yerevan, 30 April: The leader of the National Democratic Party (NDP),
Shavarsh Kocharyan, assesses the election campaign negatively and
considers it "a theatrical performance".
Addressing a news conference in Yerevan today, Kocharyan said that
"all parties speak about the same thing irrespective of what they
have been doing in recent years".
He said that the NDP "will compete with pro-government parties not
on a financial but on a more solid and ideological basis".
If the NDP makes good progress in the election, Kocharyan promises
"to replace the authoritarian governing system with a democratic one"
in order to resolve economic and social tasks.
"One should not speak about politics in a conjunctive mood. The
main point is to go towards the task set and fight until victory,"
Kocharyan said.
