ARKA News Agency, Armenia

YEREVAN, March 21. /ARKA/. The Armenian opposition's passive position
in the 2003 elections was erroneous, Chairman of the Democratic Party
of Armenia (DPA) Aram Sargsyan told reporters.
He pointed out that the opposition will actively participate in the
election campaign because the 2007 parliamentary elections are of
crucial importance for the country's life. According to Sargsyan,
in 2003 the opposition boycotted the elections, and the election
results were "drawn".
"We will not make the same mistake again as the oauthorities will
have an excellent opportunity to show the world that the Armenia
opposition does not want to struggle," Sargsyan said.
In this context he reported that he intends to make an effective
proposal for preventing election rigging to foreign observer missions.
Without going into details, he pointed out that it is the observers
that must first of all discuss the proposal.
