    Yesterday evening, unidentified men swopped down and whisked away
    Artavazd Vardanyan, who had been staging a 7 day hunger strike outside
    the offices of the Central Electoral Commission.

    Vardanyan, who had been protesting the results of the May 6
    parliamentary election, was taken by the men to his native village
    of Mousa Ler. Once there, they tried to talk him into halting the
    hunger strike.

    Vardanyan was back today at the site and told reporters that "My
    mission isn't finished."

    The protestor says the new parliament will not be able to resolve the
    outstanding problems facing Armenia and is calling for the creation
    of an alternate form of government that will include members of the
    intelligentsia.

    Vardanyan says he is displeased with the performance of both the
    ruling authorities and the opposition.
