YEREVAN. - ARF Dashnaktsutyun that has not nominated a candidate for
the presidential elections in Armenia, a few days before the
elections, scheduled for February 18, will make a special appeal to
their supporters, an ARF member Arsen Hambardzumyan informed Armenian
News-NEWS.am.
He noted that now intraparty debates are in progress and approaches
are discussed.
`At the moment, our approach is the following: we will turn to our
supporters to actively participate in the elections, regardless of the
fact that we do not participate in them, as we appreciate the
importance of the electoral institution, and have no right to
discriminate against it. We once again ask our supporters to vote
based on the call of conscience. Exclude the incumbent president, but
if there is no candidate checked, the ballot will be found invalid,
because our legislation removes the option `against all',' Arsen
Hambardzumyan said.
He also noted that the issue of support for a candidate is not a goal in itself.
The first week of the campaign Arsen Hambardzumyan described in one
word `it was fun.' None of the candidates' campaigns has impressed the
party.
