/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Yerevan needs a Mayor capable of returning true face
to the city, Armenian Democratic Party Leader Aram Sargsyan told a
news conference. "We gave close consideration to the Draft Law on Local
Government in Yerevan and submitted our remarks to RA Parliament. Yet
legislative authorities chose to oversee our suggestions. Under
imperfect legislation in this particular sphere, ADP thought it best
to refrain from participation in Mayoral elections."
"ADP will not cast votes if unsatisfied with the candidates' election
programs. Nominated parties spend significant funds on election
campaigns, but time will come when election program will matter more,"
Aram Sargsyan emphasized.
ADP Leader refused to comment on Heritage decision to recall their
participation in Mayoral elections, deeming public discussion of
other parties' steps politically incorrect.
