YEREVAN. - ARF Dashnaktsutyun that has not nominated a candidate for the presidential elections in Armenia, a few days before the elections, scheduled for February 18, will make a special appeal to their supporters, an ARF member Arsen Hambardzumyan informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.

He noted that now intraparty debates are in progress and approaches are discussed.

“At the moment, our approach is the following: we will turn to our supporters to actively participate in the elections, regardless of the fact that we do not participate in them, as we appreciate the importance of the electoral institution, and have no right to discriminate against it. We once again ask our supporters to vote based on the call of conscience. Exclude the incumbent president, but if there is no candidate checked, the ballot will be found invalid, because our legislation removes the option ‘against all’,” Arsen Hambardzumyan said.

He also noted that the issue of support for a candidate is not a goal in itself.

The first week of the campaign Arsen Hambardzumyan described in one word “it was fun.” None of the candidates’ campaigns has impressed the party.
