New Times party leader gives definition to opposition forces
New Times party leader Aram Karapetyan said he attends all opposition rallies, whether they are organized by the Armenian National Congress or nonradical opposition.

At that, he doubts formation of Dashnaktsutyun-Heritage-ANC alliance, since "artificial unions are not viable due to various goals the forces have."

Karapetyan divided the Armenian opposition into three types: first, radical opposition; second, opposition which collaborates with various forces dependently on circumstances and third, opposition forces which are 'doing business'.

Explaining this classification, he labeled Orinats Yerkir and ARF Dashnaktsutyun as situational opposition. Marxist party leader David Hakobyan and National Unity chairman Artashes Geghamyan are representatives of 'business opposition', according to him.
