The current pre-electoral situation in Armenia is the result of full
concentration of all levers of power in the hands of the ruling
Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) and their use exclusively for
partisan purposes. It is also the result of lack of public confidence
in the possibility to change the power by means of elections, Armen
Rustamyan, representative of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun Party, said in
Parliament on Tuesday. He said that the current situation has made
senseless the participation of all political forces in the election,
except the RPA.
Deputy Head of Heritage Party Rouben Hakobyan said that the current
election in Armenia has turned into confrontation of the interests of
the people and the ruling elite. "Unfortunately, the people's interests
yield to the authorities' interests, and this results in the growth
of poverty, unemployment and migration", he said. Hakobyan called on
the population not to lose hope and to vote honestly, as it is the
only possible way to take the country out of the current situation.
