YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 7, NOYAN TAPAN. The Orinats Yerkir (Country of
Law) Party will take part in the May 12 parliamentary elections
independently, without making alliance with any other party. OYP
Chairman Artur Baghdasarian declared this at the February 7 press
conference. In his words, this February 6 decision of party's Board
does not mean at all that they exclude cooperation with another
political forces. In A.Baghdasarian's words, OYP is willing to
cooperate with all forces which are for democracy development in
Armenia. He stated that they will also cooperate with the parties which
have structures abroad and fight for Armenia's interests abroad. The
OYP leader said that currently the pro-governmental field leans on four
parties - Republican Party of Armenia, Bargavach Hayastan (Prosperous
Armenia), ARFD and United Labor Party. As A.Baghdasarian forecast,
the authorities are going to create the 5th pole as well, in which some
extraparliamentary forces will be included. In A.Baghdasarian's words,
the most important is to exclude falsifications at the forthcoming
parliamentary elections "in order not to disgrace our country once
more."
In his words, though it is the authorities who are first of all
responsible for holding of fair elections, nevertheless, all political
organizations should do their best in this direction. A.Baghdasarian
also reported that the list of OYP candidates to be nominated
by the majoritarian system will be ready in the second half of
February. "There is no exact decision on my nomination yet," he added.
