Armenian political party New Times will not participate in the
forthcoming parliamentary elections, according to party chair, Aram
Karapetyan, because the party does not believe that it is possible
to change Armenia through elections.
Karapetyan says there is only one way to change anything in the
country, and that is through street protests.
In contrast, Republican Party MP Manvel Badeyan believes that it is
unacceptable to lead the country into revolution. He said "responsible"
Armenians should not follow in the footsteps of their Arab peers.
