Robert Kocharyan to head nationalist bloc to contest snap polls

Armenia's ex-president Robert Kocharyan will head an election bloc of the nationalist Reviving Armenia and Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF/Dashnaktsutyun) parties to contest the early parliamentary elections, scheduled to take place on June 20, the Reviving Armenia party said in a Facebook post today.

"In view of the need to act together with like-minded political forces, the Reviving Armenia party decided to take part in the early parliamentary elections in an electoral alliance with the ARF/ Dashnaktsutyun party that will be headed by the second president of Armenia Robert Kocharyan," ARKA cited the party as saying.

The Armenian Revolutionary Federation is one of the oldest ultra-nationalist Armenian political parties.
