/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian National Movement (ANM), the ruling
party in Armenia in 1990-1998, dropped out of the race for May 12
parliamentary elections. The party's statement says 'the decision
proceeded from the political situation in the republic.' The party
leaders are convinced that unconsolidated participation of the
opposition in the election makes change of power impossible.
ANM said winning seats in the parliament is not an end in itself. "The
party quits the race in order to consolidate the opposition
electorate," the statement says.
"The ANM calls on its supporters to vote for a political force that
highlights change of power, liberalism, democracy and real politics,"
it says, Novosti Armenia reports.
