Not To Support Anyone

NOT TO SUPPORT ANYONE

"Be sure that even if the Communist Party of Armenia has no candidate
of its own, it will not support anyone, be it from the pro-Government
or the pro-Opposition camp. Because, if you want to know, we even
oppose the Opposition itself.

No opposition leads to the principle of social justice; no opposition
shares our approaches with regard to labor issues. We definitely say
that we want the recovery of the social system," ROUBEN TOVMASYAN,
leader of the Communist Party announced yesterday.

With regard to the united candidate, "The meetings, as you saw, have
expired. I was invited twice, but I didn’t go. Even some friends of
mine became a little offended because I had said I didn’t want to
take part in cafe-restaurant meetings.

Therefore, the quest is needless because those who believe they will
become the Opposition’s united candidate have announced that they
are going to run for presidency. Take anyone as an example; they
all hoped that they would become a united candidate. They gathered,
talked, argued and even ensured conditions of confidentiality, but
the united candidate was nowhere to be seen."
