YEREVAN, JANUARY 15, NOYAN TAPAN. Unlike majority of opposition forces,
the Union of National Democrats party excluded holding of special
parliamentary elections and said that it is necessary to prepare for
regular 2007 elections.
Chairman of the Union of National Democrats, Arshak Sadoyan said
this at the January 13 press conference. In his first, the first and
foremost task of the current Armenian parties should be to struggle
for fair, transparent elections, for the authorities to fail to form
"a painted parliament." "In the current situation there is a real
possibility to disclose falsifications and to move to a velvety
revolution," A.Sadoyan assured.
In his words, the Union of National Democrats plans to have 7-8
"firm persons" at polling stations who will fight for holding fair
elections and will form an atmosphere that will turn into a velvety
revolution. At the same time, A.Sadoyan stressed that by saying a
"firm person" he means not muscular or physically strong persons,
but those who will not be bribed.
In A.Sadoyan's words, instead of preparing the process of control for
the elections, many forces announcing themselves opposition ones,
"due to bribe given by the authorities" try to distract public
attention by proposing fighting crime, "some broom wars," etc.
The Chairman of the Union of National Democrats called all opposition
parties for taking part in the forthcoming elections without fail. As
he affirmed, boycott is only a means of avoiding responsibility.
