Six political parties will be dissolved in Armenia, the head of the
department for the registration of public unions, non-commercial legal
entities and media outlets of the Justice Ministry's State Register
Agency, Eduard Markaryan, has told Arminfo. These are the Conservative
Democratic Party, the Liberal Democratic Party, the Armenian Socialist
Congress Party, the National Democratic Party, the Work, Law and
Democracy Party and the National Unity Party.
The aforementioned parties have failed to provide information on the
number of their members and regional branches within the period fixed
by the law (from 8 February to 8 August), he said.
In line with amendments to the law "On political parties", a party
should have more than 2,000 members and over 400 regional branches. A
newly-established party should have more than 200 members and regional
branches in at least a third of the country's regions, including
Yerevan.
Markaryan also said that apart from the mentioned six parties, 62
parties have been registered with the Justice Ministry. The ministry
is now considering the Armenian Motherland Party's application for
registration.
