YEREVAN. – “[Armenia’s opposition] ARF [Dashnaktsutyun Party Supreme Body] SB is guided by the General Assembly decision. [And] No such discussion and decision was made in the Assembly, which means the SB has not launched any step toward supporting Robert Kocharyan.” ARF SP representative Arsen Hambardzumyan told this 168 Zham daily, in response to the query as to whether the ARF will support second President Robert Kocharyan in the 2013 presidential elections.      

‘“And could the ARF convene yet another special General Assembly, prior to the elections, and discuss the matter of supporting Kocharyan?’ 

‘The SB is guided by our Assembly’s decisions. Not only [was] such decision [not reached], but, also, no [such] discussion took place in the Assembly. That is to say, there is no such issue on our agenda in general,’ he concluded,” 168 Zham writes.
