    Armenia's Dashnaktsutyun party against revolutions

    Arminfo
    10 Feb 05

    Yerevan, 10 February: The Armenian Revolutionary Federation -
    Dashnaktsutyun [ARFD] is for reforms but against revolutions, Vaan
    Ovanesyan, deputy speaker of the Armenian parliament and a member of
    the ARFD board, told Arminfo today.

    He said this while commenting on today's statement by New Times party
    leader Aram Karapetyan about his party's plans to stage a nation-wide
    revolution in Armenia in April 2005 and its readiness to cooperate
    with all national political forces (excluding the [former ruling]
    Pan-National Movement of Armenia).

    Vaan Ovanesyan said that the ARFD had been speaking about the need
    for radical reforms in the country for many years and considered the
    pace of changes in Armenia to be ineffective.

    However, this does not mean that a revolution has to be staged. As
    for Karapetyan's statement on his willingness to cooperate with
    all political parties of the country, "we have not yet received an
    invitation for cooperation from Aram Karapetyan or his New Times
    party", Ovanesyan said.
