ARF presented its candidates and the election platform for Yerevan
municipal election at Moscow Cinema Theater on May 4.

The party wants the Yerevan residents to realize the significance of
the election. The government and the radical opposition represent two
extremes with the government trying to diminish the significance of
the election and the opposition trying to extremely politicize it. ARF
Supreme Body of Armenia representative Armen Rustamian called both
approaches unacceptable for the ARF. He said the party is running
with a team that is completely familiar with the problems of the
capital and is capable of dealing with them.

"Whatever we are going to promise is what we are able to deliver. Each
member of our team knows their job," Rustamian said.

Artsvik Minasyan, who heads the ARF ticket, spoke about the party’s
platform that covers many problems of the city, from economic and
environmental to cultural and social. Minasian proposes the right
ways for reforms, saying this is possible only if there is will and
determination. ARF will engage professionals in governing the city
if winning the election.
