The question if there will be the post-election upheavals in Armenia,
should be given to the authorities, the leader of the Armenian
National Congress, Levon Ter-Petrosyan, said at the press-conference
in the office of the single electoral headquarters on 6 May. He also
added that, for instance, on 1 March 2008 the opposition was holding a
peaceful action and the tragic events of that time were initiated by
the authorities.
As for the activity of the single electoral headquarters,
Ter-Petrosyan said that if Armenian National Congress, Prosperous
Armenia Party and ARF Dashnaktiutyun act jointly, they will be able to
reach serious results in fixing fraud of the electoral process.
For his part, a member of the Prosperous Armenia Party, ex-foreign
minister of Armenia Vardan Oskanyan said that PAP is a true
alternative to the Republican Party of Armenia. But the latter does
not want to easily give up its seat. For this reason, there are
clashes between the two political forces.
In this context, Ter-Petrosyan said that the RPA has always considered
the PAP its "younger brother" and added that today the latter is
trying to conduct independent policy and meets hot and strong
resistance of the RPA.
