"The governments of Armenia, as well as Azerbaijan, are not viewed as
governments which reflect the public opinion and are legitimate. At
least the part of the State Secretary report on Armenia states that
the president of Armenia was elected in a disputable election," said
Hovanes Igityan, member of the board of the All-Armenian National
Movement. In answer to the question what the opposition should do
besides demanding the resignation of the president to tackle the
threat to the settlement, Igityan said that early elections should
be conducted. "The change of government is not the problem. It is
necessary to promote democracy. And the promotion of democracy is not
only change of government. Armenia needs the following steps: free
press, no political prisoners, a normal judicial system. But all these
should be the preconditions for a free and fair election. Election
of Serge Sargsyan in such an election would be an attainment for
Armenia. Anyone who were elected like the present mayor, were it
Sarcozy, Obama, Ter-Petrosyan would be considered as a dictator,"
he said, adding that at some point in future the government will have
to resign, under the pressure of either the people or the outside.
