YEREVAN. - Leader of Union for National Self-Determination Paruyr Hayrikyan called on all political forces to form a united bloc to take part in impending either regular or snap parliamentary elections. Hayrikyan explained his proposal by lack of democracy in Armenia.

“If the political forces fail to follow our advice, we will make moves by ourselves,” he told reporters in Yerevan on Wednesday. He stressed they will wait for the answer till September 20.

The politician stressed they appealed to the oppositional Armenian National Congress (ANC). However, the ANC did not respond, proving democracy is not essential for them, added Hayrikyan.
