The Armenian National Congress (HAK) is trying to drum up broad-based opposition support for its leader Levon Ter-Petrosian but is ready, in principle, to back other presidential candidates, a senior member of the bloc indicated on Monday.
Aram Manukian said the HAK is now "entirely focused" on creating a "favorable situation" for Ter-Petrosian's participation in Armenia's next presidential election slated for February.
"Our entire team is trying to create an environment for Levon Ter-Petrosian to nominate his candidacy," Manukian told a news conference. "We want … to come to a conclusion with other political forces that he should run."
"If that doesn't happen, any option can be discussed, both inside and outside the HAK," he said.
