"All elections are important, especially the local government elections
because local government is the closest to the people and the people
usually judge by the local government bodies," told A1+ first president
Levon Ter-Petrosyan in regard to the local government elections to
be held on September 28 and especially the Kentron community elections.
Stressing the importance of the local government elections, the first
president said: "I would be happy to always see honest, smart and
generous people in local government bodies. The Kentron community
head elections are coming up and Ararat Zurabyan is the candidate
that fits in with the requirements."
RA first president Levon Ter-Petrosyan stressed the following while
speaking of Kentron community head candidate, head of the Armenian
National Movement administration and member of the Armenian National
Congress Ararat Zurabyan: "Ararat Zurabyan is a state activist and has
been part of the movement since 1988 when he was in his prime. Twenty
years have passed and he is still part of the movement. The people's
attitude towards the movement today goes to show that it has justified
the means regardless of all of the committed errors. The movement
has stood the test of time and I think that the people must vote for
people like Ararat Zurabyan and not ordinary people for whom the post
is a means to do business."
Taking into account the previous falsified, corrupted, violent
Local Government Elections held in Yerevan, "A1+" asked the first
president whether citizens will not see the same scenario during
the Kentron community head elections on September 28. "That is
exactly what hurts me. I understand that the authorities try to and
do everything possible to keep power during the parliamentary and
presidential elections, but they can at least hold a couple of fair
local government elections. They don't want anything legal in this
country. They want everybody to be like them."
Ter-Petrosyan believes that even in those conditions the citizens of
Armenia have always done what they had to do and called on citizens of
Armenia to be more active and vote in all elections. "It's alright,
let them steal. But each citizen must fulfill his duty." When is the
stealing going to end? In response to the question Levon Ter-Petrosyan
said: "It will end when somebody stops them. The people must stand
up against them."
