The presidential candidate Aram Harutiunyan whose election campaign,
its first stage, is implemented through contacts with the media,
was hosted at the Pastark Press Club on January 24. The presidential
candidate again mentioned the adoption of the law on opposition,
considering it as important in the sense that a normal country needs
a normal opposition.
Besides, Aram Harutiunyan stated that if the election is free and fair,
if there is a debate, he has a chance to not only pass to the second
round but also to win the election. For the debate, Aram Harutiunyan
says he proposes a draw to decide the pairs for debate.
However, the candidate does not doubt the necessity for a debate in
the presidential election. He says otherwise the election would be
meaningless. He compares it with the World Cup, saying that if the
candidates avoid a debate, it would be the same as the teams refused
to play with each other in the world cup, and each went to the field
and performed tricks.
Aram Harutiunyan declined to say whom he will support if there is a
run-off election in which he does not participate. He says he would
not like to advertise any of the candidates now because saying to
support someone is advertisement. Instead, Aram Harutiunyan criticized
Levon Ter-Petrosyan, namely his approach toward the settlement of
the Karabakh issue, and that his political activity is a backward
step. Aram Harutiunyan stated that he does not know under the pressure
of which forces the ex-president who had left under the pressure of
certain forces returned. Besides, Aram Harutiunyan says he talks too
much about Ter-Petrosyan because he does not admit to his mistakes
he made when he was president.
