YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 6, NOYAN TAPAN. The inter-party conference of the
ARF Dashnaktsutiun and the Ramkavar-Azatakan Party of Armenia was
held on November 6 in Yerevan. Representatives of these parties from
Armenia and the Diaspora took part in it.
As Hrant Margarian, a representative of the ARFD Bureau, said in his
interview to journalists, relations between the Ramkavar-Azatakan
Party and ARFD were strained for a very long time and if the two
traditional parties are able to reach agreement over issues of much
importance for the nation, this must be an example for other forces
working in the Armenian political sphere. He expressed the hope
that the Social-Democratic Hnchakian Party will also take part in
intra-party conferences to be held in the future. In response to the
question of whether he considers possible ANM's participation in such
conferences, H. Margarian said that it will depend on that party's
position over the Nagorno Karabakh problem.
Attaching importance to cooperation of the two parties, Asatur
Tevetian, the Vice-Chairman of the Ramkavar-Azatakan Party, expressed
the hope that the meetings will be permanent. He said that no issue
of Ramkavar-Azatakan Party's supporting ARFD's candidate in the
presidential elections was discussed at the conference.
A. Tevetian did not exclude that if the law On Dual Citizenship
comes into force, the Ramkavar-Azatakan Party's central office
will move to Armenia and the party will take a more active part in
country's home political processes. In connection with the rumors
on Ramkavar-Azatakan Party's joining with the National Revival and
Dashink parties, A. Tevetian said that before making such a decision
the Ramkavar-Azatakan Party of Armenia should first apply to the
party's central office.
