The Communist Party of Armenia is going to participate in the 2007
parliamentary elections on its own, on August 24, CPA Central Committee
First Secretary Ruben Tovmasyan stated during a press conference

According to him, the party has completely reconsidered outcomes of the
2003 parliamentary elections (the CPA did not collect necessary number
of voices and did not get into parliament - REGNUM); it is sure of its
success in 2007. Also, Ruben Tovmasyan stated, the Communist Party
"is not going to share its power and strength with other political
parties even in aspect of cooperation and joint struggle for the
sake of fair elections." "The Communist Party has been repeating its
slogan for honest and fair elections for more than 80 years. However,
there were, there are and there will be no fair elections, however
hard you try to unite," the communist is sure.
Also, Ruben Tovmasyan stressed, cooperation is possible under
four conditions, which may be fulfilled by no parties except for
the Communist one now: struggle for social justice, improvement of
living standards of ordinary people, striving for Armenia's joining the
Russian-Belarusian union, and struggle against criminality, corruption,
and bribes. According to Mr. Tovmasyan, the whole Armenian people
are electorate of his party. As for possibility of social revolution,
the communist stressed that Communist Party had come to power through
revolution, but "revolution is not a children's toy."
