`COMMUNITY AND RIGHT' NGO AGAINST `ORINATS YERKIR' PARTY
Non-governmental organization `Community and Right' flatly refuses to
cooperate with «Orinats Yerkir» party. «We will not support a party that is
a leader in electoral violations, spreading false statements and trying to
mislead not only numerous members of our party, but also the society», said
president of the `Community and Right' NGO Samvel Lazarian at the
press-conference in `Pakagits' club today.
The controversy between the parties was caused by the circumstance that
according to the `Community and Right', `Orinats Yerkir' gambles on its
political consultations and incorrectly presents the list of its
«supporters».
In «Iravunk» weekly NA speaker Arthur Baghdasaryan called upon political and
public organizations to unite so that the upcoming elections of local
self-government bodies be free and fair. Later follow-up responses to
Baghdasaryan's appeal were published in `Aravot' daily. However, after
reading the published materials Samvel Lazarian, president of `Community
and Right' NGO, reported: `Orinats Yerkir party published private
conversations and individual opinions, thus transforming in particular the
response of `Community and Right' which has nothing to do with the stand of
our organisation. During the past years we have always supported fair and
democratic elections, and never adhered to any political trend'.
In fact, a representative of Orinats Yerkir had a telephone conversation
with Anahit Ghahramanyan, vice-president of the said NGO (also an Orinats
Yerkir member). She welcomed the idea on behalf of the president and called
on other NGOs to join the process.In this regard Mr. Lazarian addressed the
NA, spoke with members of Orinats Yerkir. The latters promised to make the
necessary corrections, but nothing has been done so far.
By the way, Samvel Lazarian is non-party and doesn't accept any of the
functioning parties. Perhaps, `Community and Right' NGO will also enter the
political field in the near future.
