    "ARU" APPEALS TO PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES WITH CALLS FOR SOLIDARITY,
    WHILE VAHAN HOVHANNISIAN STATES: "CURRENT AUTHORITIES SHOULD ASK
    THEMSELVES HOW MUCH THEY ARE LOATHSOME TO PEOPLE THAT IT FOLLOWS
    HATEFUL "ANM"

    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. With the aim of making a call for
    solidarity to all the political forces, a procession of women was
    organized on February 16 on the initiative of "Armenian Relief Union"
    (ARU) NGO. The procession started from the area adjacent to the
    Matenadaran, then the participants went along central streets of
    Yerevan, chanting "Freedom" and "Justice", and handed their messages of
    solidarity to the central headquarters of the Armenian National
    Movement (ANM) party, the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) and the
    Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF) party.

    The message in particular reads: "Do not fall victims in the turmoil of
    vanity and lust for power. Life neither begins nor ends with elections".

    In the words of the head of the ARU Yerevan office Vehanush Margarian,
    the messages of solidarity will be handed to all the candidates for the
    RA presidency. In her opinion, "most intolerance and hatred is seen
    between the presidential candidates Serge Sargsian and Levon
    Ter-Petrosian, so the women's message mainly addresses these two
    candidates".

    The procession ended at the ARF Supreme Body office where the
    participants were met by the presidential candidate Vahan Hovhannisian.
    He stated that "in order to have a strong state, it is necessary to
    reject the past and change the present".

    According to him, the society is sick and tired of the present, so it
    follows the past without realizing that current authorities do not
    differ from the former ones. "The current authorities should ask
    themselves how much they are loathsome to the people that it follows
    the hateful ANM," V. Hovhannisian said, adding: "These are two wings of
    the same pole and their struggle has moved to the frame "power-money",
    "money-power". In his words, the purpose of the ARF is to break this
    frame.

    He said that the people will not lose if any of the presidential
    candidates, except Serge Sargsian and Levon Ter-Petrosian - the current
    and former authorities, wins these elections.
