Ter-Petrosian Bloc Urges Opposition Unity In Yerevan Vote

The Armenian National Congress (HAK) called on Wednesday for the formation of a broad-based opposition alliance that would challenge the ruling Republican Party (HHK) in upcoming municipal elections in Yerevan.

The HAK said it is ready to agree with the Prosperous Armenia Party (BHK) as well as the opposition Dashnaktsutyun and Zharangutyun parties on a joint list of candidates for the polls scheduled for May 5.

"This is a unique opportunity for these four political forces to achieve an important victory over the regime by consolidating their resources and coordinating their efforts. That would pave the way for an eventual regime change," said Levon Zurbaian, a leading member of the opposition bloc headed by former President Levon Ter-Petrosian.
