    MAY 12 ELECTIONS TO DECIDE FATE OF ARMENIA

    `These elections may not only be regular but decisive,' Shavarsh
    Kocharyan, National Democratic Party leader, told a press conference
    today.

    In his words, Armenia was going to `authoritarian, individual based
    system' but the process has been stopped in the course of the last two
    years. Therefore, the elections on May 12 will decide the fate of
    Armenia - towards a rule of law, democratic country or to an
    authoritarian state. `For the first time in Armenia, there was a
    change to shift the power from the center of authorities - the
    president to a political body - the parliament,' he said.

    Kocharyan believes parliamentary elections are more important that
    2008 presidential elections. He said Armenia cannot take the path of
    Middle East countries especially that there are people who will go
    `after ideas and not money.'
