Dashnakstutiun (ARF-D) will be able to open a national opposition
front after the May 31Yerevan City Council Elections, ARF-D mayoral
candidate Artsvik Minasyan said.
"We believe establishment of a national municipality in Yerevan is
a priority issue for Armenia, as the capital city must balance and
control the government's centralized policy," the mayoral candidate
was quoted as saying on Tuesday.
Minasyan stressed that there is no such party that can oppose to the
government decisions on Yerevan.
"This is the reason why the next mayor should be an oppositionist,
he added.
Six political parties (the Republican Party of Armenia, Prosperous
Armenia, Orinats Yerkir, ARF-D, People's Party, Socialist Labor Party
of Armenia and the Armenian National Congress) have put up candidates
for the Yerevan City Council elections.
