“Arakelutyun” (Mission), which was established in 2013, will participate in the upcoming parliamentary elections together with Tsarukyan alliance. In the third conference of the party the political board unequivocally made such a decision. In the interview with journalists Manuk Sukiasyan, member of the political board of “Arakelutyun” party, said that the party doesn’t have a Chairman, there are no membership cards, lists, “That is more binding and obliging, as in our country people perceive the formal status of being a partisan with reservations. There isn’t another such institution in Armenia. It isn’t based on our personality, it is based on ideology,” he noted, adding that as of now the party has more than 2000 members. In reply to our question by which program they will participate in the elections, Sukiasyan answered, “It is a priority for us to have an electoral system in Armenia which will show the will and the vote of the people, to establish a precedent of changing the authorities with people’s vote. As long as there is no such precedent, any ideology becomes very vulnerable.” According to Sukiasyan, they have seen this precedent on the basis of the alliance formed around Gagik Tsarukyan.
