    STEPAN DEMIRCHYAN AND SERGE SARGSYAN ARE INCOMPATIBLE

    A1+
    [05:25 pm] 13 November, 2006

    Leader of the People's Party Stepan Demirchyan treats the
    announcement of the RA authorities about the 2007 Parliamentary
    elections humorously. Let us remind you that the authorities claim
    that the 2007 Parliamentary elections will be a step forward from all
    the elections in Armenia. "The greatest problem is that the people
    do not believe that Armenia can organize free and fair elections",
    Demirchyan said in "Pastark" club today.

    Nevertheless, Stepan Demirchyan underlined, "The 2007 Parliamentary
    elections are important as the role of the Parliament has become more
    important after the fabricated Constitutional referendum".

    According to him, the situation would have been different if "A1+" were
    given air and if at least one law-breaker were punished. "Punishing
    one law-breaker will be more effective than the amendments to the
    Electoral Code. The Electoral Code is not a sufficient precondition
    for holding free and fair elections".

    Mr. Demirchyan is sure that the authorities could have organized free
    and fair elections even without the amendment to the electoral code,
    in case of displaying enough political will. The leader of the People's
    Party claimed that any form of combat except bloodshed is acceptable
    for them in order to free the country from the present authorities.

    As for the statement of Garnik Margaryan, the head of the party
    "Fatherland and Honor", that the oppositional parties which are going
    to participate in plenary and not special elections, have had promises
    from the authorities, Mr. Demirchyan said, "If we participate in
    the plenary elections, it does not mean that we have had promises
    from the authorities. I understand Mr. Margaryan and I share his
    position that the situation in the country must be improved before
    the elections. But it is a theoretical approach, and we do not have
    much time to get ready for the elections."

    Mr. Demirchyan informed that the People's Party is ready to participate
    in the elections alone, but he did not exclude the possibility of
    creating alliances.

    At present together with the "Orinats Yerkir" and the National Unity
    the People's Party is going to make a joint offer about the order of
    formation of the Electoral Committees. "All the political powers must
    be equally represented in the Electoral Committees".

    The leader of the People's party underlined that they are participating
    in the elections in order to win.

    The party is not going to bribe people. "During the previous elections
    they distributed money and seeds to the people, but still the people
    made their choice. We trust our people".

    The journalists also tried to find out what can unite Demirchyan and
    Serge Sargsyan for the sake of the bright future of Armenia. "Nothing
    at all. Let the present authorities leave, for the sake of the bright
    future of Armenia", Stepan Demirchyan said.
