    VARTAN OSKANIAN URGED ALL POLITICAL FORCES OF ARMENIA TO REFRAIN FROM TEMPTATION TO TRY TO GAIN VICTORY DURING ELECTIONS BY MEANS OF DESTABILIZATION OF SITUATION IN THE COUNTRY

    January 9, 2008

    Yerevan /Mediamax/. Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian urged
    all the political forces of Armenia today to refrain from temptation
    to try to gain victory during the presidential elections of February
    19 by means of destabilization of the situation in the country.

    At that, Mediamax reports, speaking at a news conference in Yerevan
    today, Vartan Oskanian stated that he considers "unacceptable" any
    efforts to destabilize the situation to reach political goals.

    "The forces, which strive to preserve power, or to come to power,
    should use exclusively democratic tools and mechanisms", Vartan
    Oskanian stressed.

    Answering the question whether Armenia should count on the "indulgence"
    of the international community, analogous to the one, which was
    demonstrated as concerning the presidential elections in Georgia on
    January 5, the Foreign Minister stated:

    "Our task must be to hold free and fair elections without looking
    at anybody".

    Vartan Oskanian expressed confidence that if the presidential elections
    are held at a higher level, than the parliamentary elections of 2007,
    "the following 5 years will be years of upsurge for Armenia".
