THE ARMENIAN REVOLUTIONARY FEDERATION (ARF) DOESN'T SEE ANY "GROUNDS FOR OPTIMISM"

The ARF hasn't started, so to say, decisive discussions on the
presidential election to be held in February 2013. In response to
a question of www.aravot.am how the party would participate in the
election, Aghvan Vardanyan, the secretary of the ARF parliamentary
group, said, "We have said lots of times that we haven't discussed
the issue of candidates and personalities yet. We prefer a few main
problems facing the country, which will be included in the political
agenda in the short-run. Only after discussing those will we decide
on the form of our participation in the presidential election."
Given the current developments, our interlocutor doesn't see any
grounds for the opposition's complete consolidation, which was talked
about during the whole summer, "Those issues will be discussed in
good time, but given at least the picture of today's political stage,
there are no grounds for such optimism."
