ArmInfo. 'The Armenian society does not realize what steps it should
take to achieve progress, it just does not know where it is and
what it wants', Chairman of the National-Democratic party Shavarsh
Kocharyan told journalists today in "Pastarq" club in response to
ArmInfo question "what is the reason that the majority of the protest
electorate supported Levon Ter-Petrosyan, and does it indicate absence
of trust to the other oppositional forces and parties, which played
an opposition. S. Kocharyan said that in the situation, developed
in Armenia before the presidential election, the public conscience
was affected by such factors as hatred and populism. "The hatred
was inculcated by the first president, while "Orinats Yerkir" party
played on the populism. Even these candidates, by the official data,
gained support of over 600,000 voters", S. Kocharyan said.
He explains receipt of considerable support by the ex-president
by the fact that the sufficient part of the Armenian society is
very much displeased with the existing state of things. "You see,
under the conditions, when the voters are convinced more and more
that they vote for one candidate and another one becomes a president,
they start to support the candidate around which an aura of possibility
to force the power is created", S. Kocharyan said.
