This kind of ARF-promoting articles show the huge distance in several issues between the Diaspora and Armenia. If they were elections today, the ARF would not get more than 5% of the votes. This comes because they supported Kocharyan/Sargsyan presidencies and rigged elections in Armenia. Being financed by the Diaspora they exist but do nothing for the improvement of the way of live of Armenian people. Today Armenia has - apart from the war period in the 90s - the biggest socio-economic and political crisis since its independence. And the Dashnaks are highly responsible for this.
