Today during a meeting with the Press, the Head of ARF-D Parliamentary
Faction and Chairman of the Armenian delegation to the Euronest
Parliamentary Assembly Vahan Hovhannesyan referred to Euronest's
latest session and to the work done by the Armenian Delegation.
As far as the forthcoming parliamentary elections is concerned
Hovhannesyan told the Press that ARF-D like any other political party,
wants to secure as many seats as possible. He also said that if
ARF-D's proposition to pass to a 100% proportional electoral system
is rejected then the Party will probably nominate its candidates or
support candidates of the opposition parties in at least the major
single-seat constituencies.
Hovhannesyan urged the people to exercise their right to vote no
matter if they are frustrated or have no confidence in the results,
consider themselves extraordinary intelligent or feel exhausted
because as he said "abstention is like voting for the regime"
