Democratic party leader: these authorities are incompatible with justice

PanARMENIAN.Net - “There is some media coverage progress in this election campaign, and I believe this is positive. The methods, however, have remained the same,” leader of the Democratic Party of Armenia Stepan Demirchyan told a press conference on May 4.

Demirchyan who is nominated by the opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) for the upcoming parliamentary elections says ANC’s campaign was successful since it managed to gather a large number of supporters at its recent rallies, who came voluntarily “unlike those forced by some parties.”

“ANC held particularly large-scale campaign during the past two weeks. It will have serious representation in the parliament in case of fair elections,” Democratic party leader stated adding that “these authorities are incompatible with justice”.

ANC will comprehensively assess the electoral developments following the May 6 vote, Demirchyan said.

According to him, the opposition bloc is going to hold a rally in Freedom Square on May 8.

Parliamentary elections are due in Armenia on May 6 featuring 8 political parties (Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), Prosperous Armenia, ARF Dashnaktsutyun (ARFD), Orinats Yerkir, Heritage, Democratic Party of Armenia (DPA), Communist Party of Armenia and United Armenian party, as well as one election bloc represented by opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC).
