ANDU CONCERNED WITH AMENDMENTS IN ELECTION CODE
Seiran Avagyan, adviser to the president of the
republican, and his co-party fellows are very
concerned with the amendments in the Election Code
which say that any party must have 5% of votes to
enter into the parliament. The combination of two
parties must overcome 7% limit and an alliance of more
than 3 parties must collect 10% and more votes.
Armenian National Democratic Union (ANDU) called a
press conference today to share the concerns.
Vice chairman of ANDU, Vahram Lazarian, is concerned
that many out-of-parliament forces cannot overcome the
5% limit and `representatives of lot of people will
not appear in 2007 parliament.'
Arthur Levonyan from the same party says it is clear
that the coalition wants to reproduce itself. He said
the disposition of the opposition is unclear. The
party came to a conclusion that `the opposition wants
to settle issues in post-election tense situation like
in Georgia.' ANDU deputy chairman thinks it
unacceptable that the coalition has stated that the
next parliament will comprise only them. `If the
Georgia scenario is repeated, they will be responsible
for that,' he said. /Panorama.am/
