YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 12, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The ARF
Dashnaktsutiun should take part in 2007 NA elections through
wide cooperation with political forces without making part of any
preelection bloc. Armen Rustamian, representative of the party's
Armenian Supreme Body, declared at the September 12 press conference,
summing up the results of the ARFD Armenian structure's 10th Supreme
Assembly.
In Rustamian's words, the holding of free and fair elections is the
main precondition for overcoming the challenges faced by the country
without shocks and losses.
The representative of ARFD Armenian Supreme Body emphasized that
cooperation with political forces should be built on the basis of
principles of ensuring supremacy of common national-state interests
and solution of current problems, setting themselves the task to
increase the impact and role of political forces in the country,
to raise the political activity of electors, reducing the impact of
electoral bribes and other bad ways on manifestation of people's will,
to achieve holding of legal elections.
Armen Rustamian reported that in 2007 parliamentary elections the ARFD
proportional list will be compiled in correspondence with the law,
through a special Supreme Assembly.
In Armen Rustamian's words, the Dashnaktsutiun's opinion about the
presidential elections is the following: "Taking into consideration
the essential connection between the parliamentary and presidential
elections, it will be possible to clarify the strategy of the party's
participation in the presidential elections only on the basis of
estimation to holding of NA elections and the results registered by
the party. A regular Supreme Assembly scheduled for the next year
will also clarify the party's candidate in the presidential elections."
The Supreme Assembly also touched upon some issues giving rise to
anxiety and having received a wide publicity in the recent period.
The Assembly condemned acts of violence towards journalists and
confirmed that freedom of expression is the main precondition in the
issue of forming a favorable preelection atmosphere.
The representative of ARFD Armenian Supreme Body said that the
resolutions of the Supreme Assembly will be publicized soon.
