PARUYR HAYRIKIAN NOT DECIDED YET TO HEAD ELECTORAL COORDINATORY BODY
OF OPPOSITION PARTIES

YEREVAN, MARCH 17, NOYAN TAPAN. "If the opposition parties’ approach
to form an electoral coordinatory body is serious, I am ready with my
experience to contribute to this." Paruyr Hayrikian, Chairman of the
"National Self-Determination" Union who was proposed to head this
body, told this to NT correspondent. According to him, Chairman of the
"New Times" Party Aram Karapetian and Chairman of the "National Unity"
Party Artashes Geghamian are interested in creation of this body. In
response to question if all opposition members are united around this
project, P. Hayrikian said: "Not all opposition members in Armenia are
indeed opposition members." In his words, the people expect that at
least all opposition parties that have an ideology will come to an
agreement and form a united front to participate in the elections,
which may essentially change the social situation in Armenia.
