The National Revival Party has been undergoing constant pressure by
the Nagorno-Karabakh authorities since it submitted the documents for
running in the parliamentary elections, Head of the National Revival
Party Hayk Khanumyan has told ArmInfo.
The electoral campaign in Artsakh kicked off on April 1, and the
parliamentary election will be held on May 3. 7 parties will take
part in the election: Free Motherland, National Revival, Peace and
Development, ARF Dashnaktsutyun, Movement-88, the Democratic Party,
and the Communist Party of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.
"We were suddenly denied the territory we were leasing for our
party's headquarters. We had to urgently find new premises, and now
our headquarters is in Alek Manukyan Street in Stepanakert," the
oppositionist says, explaining it by the special services' threats
against the lease provider and his relatives.
Khanumyan says that the authorities keep hampering the National
Revival Party's campaign, threatening its supporters and disrupting
the party's meetings with the voters. He lays the responsibility on
the NKR President Bako Sahakyan and Head of the NKR National Security
Service Arshavir Gharamanyan.
The National Revival party list is led by Hayk Khanumyan. He is
followed by political expert Tigran Grigoryan and doctor Nune
Melkumyan.
