ArmInfo. 'If Europe makes no decision on domestic political situation
in Armenia, it will betray itself not us', the presidential candidate,
the first president of Armenia, Levon Ter-Petrosyan said at regular
large-scale rally in Liberty Square in Yerevan, Thursday.
He said the international community has faced a dilemma: either
to support the movement of the Armenian people for freedom or to
protect the criminal regime. L. Ter-Petrosyan condemned international
observers for formal approach to the assessment of the presidential
election. International observers are making simple mathematics
instead of assessing the whole process of the last four months
starting from October 23 2007 when my supporters were subjected to
violence. Moreover, international observers and organizations ought
to reckon with the facts of violence starting from the moment of
counting up to present', Ter-Petrosyan said.
He also stressed that if today the international community fails to
support Armenian people's striving for democracy, it will shortly
receive a regime resembling Saddam Housein's ruling. As a result, the
OSCE will have to establish democracy in Armenia by means of tanks,
he noted. In particular, the presidential candidate touched upon the
OSCE's role and pointed out that this organization should be concerned
not with the attitude of leadership of a number of CIS countries,
including Armenia, but with the discontent of people living in the
CIS. People will be discontent if the OSCE fails to unambiguously
support the movement for establishment of democracy in Armenia,
Ter-Petrosyan added.
To note, according to ArmInfo correspondent's estimation, at the
moment about 50 thsd people take part in the rally at Liberty Square.
