    ACCORDING TO ARAM MANUKIAN, VAZGEN MANUKIAN SHOULD HAVE BEEN SECOND PRESIDENT OF ARMENIA

    YEREVAN, JANUARY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. The only possible way of getting
    rid of the current Armenian authorities is to form a multi-party
    political coalition around the first president Levon Ter-Petrosian,
    member of the Armenian National Movement (ANM) board Aram Manukian said
    at the January 16 press conference. In his words, simple political
    calculations show it, and those unable to make such calculations
    either do not know arithmetic or help intentionally the authorities.

    A. Manukian said that many representatives of all state and local
    government bodies already work secretly in favor of L. Ter-Petrosian,
    and in the second half of February when the pre-election race will
    become most active, there will be sharp changes in the power and
    political system.

    According to A. Manukian, the prime minister Serge Sargsian has a
    stable rating, while rating of L. Ter-Petrosian is increasing slowly
    but steadily.

    If these dynamics continue, the latter will win at the first round
    of elections.

    He expressed confidence that the forces supporting the first president
    will be able to prevent election rigging. "I guarantee that those
    to commit falsification against us will not benefit from it, we have
    all resources to prevent rigging," A. Manukian stated. In his words,
    the best option is that the authorities resign of their free will,
    which has been proposed to them.

    In this case there will be no tension and shocks in the country,
    and the current authorities "will remain in their historical role as
    organizers of the Karabakh movement".

    A. Manukian said there are almost no ideological contradictions
    between L. Ter-Petrosian and Vazgen Manukian, and it would be logical
    if the latter backed the candidacy of L. Ter-Petrosian. According
    to him, Vazgen Manukian should have been the second president of the
    country, and it would have been so if he had been a bit more patient
    at that time.
