YEREVAN, MARCH 26, NOYAN TAPAN. "If being elected Mayor I am ready to
be both master and servant for Yerevan residents," Tigran Karapetian,
the Chairman of the People's Party, stated at the March 26 press
conference.
Providing guarantees for Yerevan residents' ownership, living rights
is among his program provisions. "The Mayor should not only think of
rubbish as it is today," the PP Chairman said.
According to T. Karapetian, he is an alternative in the May 31 Yerevan
Council of Elders elections. "I am an alternative to the opposite
principle "who is not with us is against us," to these bad laws that
will never change unless people like me make part of power," he said.
According to T. Karapetian's prediction, on the threshold of
elections the power resources will unite and try to work for the
RPA candidate. In that respect, according to him, any political
force, pro-governmental, opposition, and people's, taking part of
the elections has its exact electorate. T. Karapetian considers that
the possibility of OYP's winning the elections is equal to zero. "No
matter who heads their list, a Bolshevik or a Menshevik. If the people
did not like him it will never like, as one can deceive the people
at least once," T. Karapetian said.
According to the PP Chairman, it is much more difficult to commit
electoral violations in Yerevan, as capital's residents are
socially more secure, therefore are more free and independent in
expressing their opinion. In his words, by appointing Gagik Beglarian
Mayor, the authorities gave him a possibility to consolidate its
resources. However, according to T. Karapetian, "moments come when
it becomes impossible to jump above one's head." And, according to
him, in this case Yerevan residents can be persons of principle and
"not play into authorities' hands."
