A source told NOW Lebanon on Wednesday that the Tashnaq party
candidate, Nazareth Sabounjian, would withdraw his candidacy for the
upcoming parliamentary elections in the northern Metn district.

The party’s decision came following the April 7 deadline to apply for
candidacy, when the Tashnaq learned that its first candidate, MP Hagop
Pakradounian, did not face competition in the northern Metn district.

As a result, Sabounjian would withdraw his candidacy in favor of
Pakradounian, who would consequently be the uncontested Armenian
winner in North Metn.
