YEREVAN. - The opposition bloc Armenian National Congress (ANC)
represents an entire nationwide movement, and therefore the matter of
forming its proportional election list, for the upcoming parliamentary
elections, will have to be more complicated than that of any other
political party, the ANC-member Armenian National Movement (ANM)
Vice Chairman Samvel Abrahamyan said during Friday's discussions on
the political forces' election lists.
In his words, these are not merely National Assembly (NA) elections for
them. "We observe the electoral process as a means, an opportunity to
restore the constitutional order in Armenia and to achieve [President]
Serzh Sargsyan's resignation," he noted.
And to the query as to the avenues for achieving Sargsyan's
resignation, ANM Vice Chairman responded: "Option one: The Congress
gains the majority of NA votes and launches the impeachment process.
Option two: The Congress, together with other political forces,
forms majority at NA and commences the impeachment process.
And option three: The Congress organizes such social movement-before
the elections-which organizes Serzh Sargsyan's resignation prior to
the elections. And if the process does not end before the NA elections,
the process will continue at NA."
