YEREVAN, MARCH 7, NOYAN TAPAN. Only 3-4 pro-governmental and 3
opposition parties out of 28 political forces having nominated their
candidatures for the parliamentary elections will appear in the
parliament. Albert Bazeyan, Chairman of National Rebirth Party, who
is the second on PPA's proportional list, expressed such an opinion
at the March 7 press conference. He gave assurance that the goal of
the rest of 20 parties is to disperse the electorate.
Mentioning that out of pro-governmental forces RPA, Bargavach
Hayastan Party, ARFD and ULP will be represented at the parliament,
A. Bazeyan did not wish to present his forecasts regarding the
oppositionists. Under conditions of opposition forces' being separated,
in his words, it is difficult to expect that the public will take part
in the elections with great inspiration. In A. Bazeyan's opinion,
instead of dicrediting one another for many years the opposition
forces should have tried to consolidate and such an attempt made at the
last moment was doomed to failure. In his words, the National Rebirth
as a young political force could not take part in the parliamentary
elections separately.
Therefore he accepted PPA's proposal to be included in the proportional
list of that party. In A. Bazeyan's words, he raised the question of
including another founder of National Rebirth, Vagharshak Haroutiunian
in PPA list, but this proposal was declined. A. Bazeyan refuted the
accusations that the leaders of National Rebirth Party cooperate with
Defence Minister Serge Sargsian or protect Russia's interests. He
declared that if these slanders addressed to him or to the party
continue, the party may reconsider the issue of its participation in
the elections. At the same time A. Bazeyan mentioned that irrespective
of his participation in the elections, the National Rebirth Party
will support PPA.
