Tigran Urikhanyan says his party will go it alone in snap elections

Panorama, Armenia

The Alliance Party will go it alone in snap parliamentary elections in Armenia, without allying itself with any other political force, its leader, independent MP Tigran Urikhanyan said at the National Assembly on Tuesday.

The lawmaker said they are going to come up with an “ultra-modern super program” during the electoral campaign.

He noted that according to the decision of the board of the Alliance Progressive Centrist Party, they will participate in the elections with their own candidate for prime minister and on the basis of a new format of relations with Russia.

He urged the authorities to remain committed to the decision to hold early elections on June 20, adding otherwise the country would be facing a “big tragedy”.

Urikhanyan reiterated that if the elections really take place, the Alliance Party will go it alone. 

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
