/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Democratic Party of Armenia (DPA) will not
support any of the candidates at the February presidential elections,
party chairman Aram Sargsyan said. "We are familiarized with all of
nine candidates, their political biography and team. After studying
the election programs we concluded that neither reflects the base
principles our ideology," he said.
Meanwhile, the Union of Veterans called on all political forces "to
be reasonable and honest." "Our national values are flouted under
the cover of ostensible patriotism," read the Union's statement.
The Constitutional Court rejected the action brought by presidential
hopeful Arman Melikyan, who urged to recognize legislative amendments
forbidding voting abroad as illegal. According to him, the amendments
infringe the rights of hundreds of people and can give ground for
falsifications.
Armenian media reports that 4010 observers of It's Your Choice NGO
will watch the presidential election.
The observers produce remarks and conclusions every ten days since the
beginning of the election campaign, chairman Harutyun Hambartsumyan
said.
