Which forces will join Dashnaktsutyun?
Only the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutyun) can unite the opposition, says Aghvan Vardanyan, Vice Chairman of the ARF Supreme Council.
"Armenia needs changes and we are obliged to make those changes. Our aim is to eliminate the single-party system, which is possible in case the opposition candidate wins the City Council elections," he said.
Vardanyan says his party is the most independent and principled party and the parties which are not joining the opposition in the municipal election will show their true face after the election.
"We made an attempt to unite the opposition but we did not succeed in our endeavors and now the four opposition forces are participating in the race separately. Each of them will try to score the maximum number of votes in the election. There are all possibilities for the opposition to unite and put an end to the one-party system," said the ARF representative.
With regard to the possibility of a joint candidate, Mr Vardanyan said, "Once the picture is clear, we shall hold a public debate to determine the most productive candidate."
